 Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil divided
  • 1 lb. ground turkey or beef 93/7
  • 1 ½ cup sweet onion finely diced
  • 1 cup carrots shredded
  • ½ tsp ginger minced
  • 3 cloves garlic crushed
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 5 cups cabbage cut into ¼-inch shreds
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut aminos Tamari or soy sauce, gluten-free*
  • 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar or rice wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp. salt to taste
  • ¼ tsp. pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
  • Toasted sesame seeds optional
  • Green onions optional


Instructions

  • In a large saute pan over medium heat drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil and add ground turkey. Cook for 5-6 minutes, or until turkey is almost cooked through.
  • Push turkey to the side of the pan and add onion and other tablespoon of oil. Saute for 3-4 minutes.



  • Add shredded carrots, garlic, and ginger and saute for 2 minutes. Stir the vegetables and turkey together.
  • Pour chicken broth in the pan and scrape the bottom of it to deglaze it.
  • Add cabbage, coconut aminos or soy sauce, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cover with a lid. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until cabbage is to your desired tenderness.
  • Just before serving add toasted sesame oil and top with green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve over regular rice, cauliflower rice, or eat it in a bowl by itself. Enjoy!  


Recipe Notes

  • Use coconut liquid aminos if you are on a Paleo and Whole30 diet.  Tamari sauce and gluten-free soy sauce work well if you're on a gluten-free diet.
  • If on a keto diet, leave out the carrots for 10 grams carbs / 7 grams net carbs per serving.
