Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced or grated
- ½ onion, thinly sliced
- 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
- 1 cup carrots, shredded or julienned
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sriracha or chili paste (optional)
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spoon.
-
Stir in garlic, ginger, and onion. Cook for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and onions begin to soften.
-
Add cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry for 5–7 minutes, until veggies are just tender but still crisp.
-
Pour in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha (if using). Stir to coat evenly and cook for another 2 minutes.
-
Remove from heat. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
-
Serve hot on its own or over cauliflower rice for a low-carb meal.
Notes
- Use coleslaw mix to save time on chopping.
- Swap ground chicken for turkey, pork, or beef for variety.
- Add mushrooms, bell peppers, or snap peas for more veggies.
- Top with chopped peanuts or crispy wonton strips (if not low-carb).
- Make it keto with coconut aminos, no carrots, and cauliflower rice.
