Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb Ground pork (or chicken, turkey, or beef)

  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated (or ginger paste)
  • 4 stalks Green onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos or gluten-free soy sauce

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a large skillet on medium-high and add a little avocado oil.
  2. Add ground meat, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
  3. Push the meat to the side. Add garlic and ginger to the open space and stir for about 20 to 30 seconds, avoiding burning.
  4. Add shredded cabbage (and a little carrot if using). Toss and cook until softens, about 4 to 6 minutes.
  5. Once cooked to your liking, add coconut aminos or gluten-free soy sauce and stir. Turn off the heat and drizzle a small amount of toasted sesame oil.
  6. Top with green onions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes or sriracha if desired.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet for best texture. Pre-shredded cabbage can save you time.
