Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 pound ground pork, chicken, or turkey
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
  • 1 (8 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1 (16 ounce) bag coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional)
  • Green onions, sliced, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground meat to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add the ground ginger and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the chopped water chestnuts and drained mushrooms. Cook for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the coleslaw mix to the skillet. Stir and cook until the cabbage starts to wilt, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and Sriracha, if using.
  7. Pour the sauce mixture over the meat and vegetables in the skillet. Toss everything together to coat evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened.
  8. Remove the skillet from the heat. Serve immediately, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • For a Whole30 or Paleo version, substitute coconut aminos for the soy sauce.
  • If you prefer ground beef, brown it well and drain the fat before adding the aromatics.
  • This is a fantastic low carb meal prep option; store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 4 days.
