Method
Cooking
- Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks. Season with onion powder, garlic powder, and ground black pepper to taste.
- Once the beef is browned, drain any excess fat and add minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Chop the green cabbage and add it to the skillet. Pour in the beef broth, soy sauce (or tamari), rice vinegar, and sugar-free sweetener. Stir well.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the cabbage has softened and absorbed the flavors.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If you want a thicker sauce, sprinkle in some xanthan gum or glucomannan.
- Serve hot, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro.
