Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken (or ground pork)
  • 4 green onions (thinly sliced, whites and greens separated)
  • 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 16 ounces coleslaw mix (or shredded cabbage)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (or to taste)
  • chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)
  • sesame seeds (for garnish)

Equipment

  • 10-inch skillet

Method
 

Step 1: Brown the Meat
  1. In a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground chicken or pork, breaking it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess fat thoroughly to prevent a greasy dish.
Step 2: Sauté Aromatics & Cabbage
  1. Stir in the white parts of the green onions, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the coleslaw mix to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Avoid overcooking to maintain some crunch.
Step 3: Sauce It Up
  1. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil. Stir well to coat everything and cook for 1 minute more, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 4: Serve
  1. Divide the mixture into bowls. Garnish generously with chopped fresh cilantro, the green parts of the green onions, and toasted sesame seeds.
