Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 small sweet onion finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 garlic cloves finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 small head cabbage about 8 cups shredded
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • For Serving (Optional):
  • Cooked white rice
  • Green onions green parts only, thinly sliced
  • Toasted sesame seeds
  • Sriracha Mayo optional

Method
 

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey and cook until almost cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
  2. Push the turkey to one side of the pan and add the onion and remaining tablespoon of oil. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add shredded carrots, garlic, and ginger and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  5. Add cabbage, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and cover.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until cabbage is tender to your liking.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in toasted sesame oil.
  8. Serve over cooked white rice if desired, topped with green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and sriracha mayo.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Avoid freezing as thawing causes excess water making cabbage mushy. Reheat on medium-low in skillet for best texture or microwave with softer results. Freshly shredded cabbage is preferred but coleslaw mix or pre-shredded cabbage works. Tamari is recommended for less sodium and gluten-free option; coconut aminos work for Whole30.
