Ingredients

For the Bowl

  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil (or avocado oil)
  • 1 lb Ground Pork (Turkey or Chicken) Can substitute with ground turkey or chicken.
  • 1/2 cup Yellow Onion (diced)
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Ginger (minced)
  • 3-4 cloves Fresh Garlic (minced, about 1 tbsp)
  • 1 14-16 oz bag Coleslaw Mix (or broccoli slaw)
  • 1/2 cup Green Onions (sliced, whites and greens separated)
  • 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce (or Tamari/Coconut Aminos)
  • 1 tbsp Toasted Sesame Oil
  • 1 tsp Rice Vinegar
  • 1-2 tsp Sriracha or Chili Garlic Paste (optional, for heat) Adjust to taste.
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds
  • Crispy Chow Mein Noodles or Wonton Strips (for crunch) Optional for garnish.
  • 1 8 oz can Sliced Water Chestnuts, drained
  • 4-8 oz Sliced Mushrooms (cremini or shiitake)
  • 2 Eggs (for scrambling or frying)

Method

Preparation

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients: soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sriracha (if using). Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat and cook, crumbling until browned. Drain any excess grease and remove the meat from the skillet with a slotted spoon.

Cooking

  • In the same skillet, add the diced onion and the white parts of the green onions (and mushrooms, if using). Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  • Add the minced fresh garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant, stirring constantly.
  • Add the entire bag of coleslaw mix to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, retaining some crunch. Add a tablespoon of water or broth if the pan seems dry.
  • Return the cooked meat to the skillet and add the water chestnuts if using. Pour the prepared sauce over everything and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.

Serving

  • Portion into bowls and garnish with the green parts of the green onions, sesame seeds, and crispy chow mein noodles (if desired). Serve hot.
