Ingredients
Scale
Protein and Veggies
- 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
- 1 small head cabbage (about 8 cups shredded)
Liquids and Seasonings
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Serving and Garnishes
- Cooked white rice
- Green onions (green parts only, thinly sliced)
- Toasted sesame seeds
- Sriracha mayo (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the turkey: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it apart, until it is almost cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
- Sauté onion and aromatics: Push the turkey to one side of the pan and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the finely diced sweet onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add shredded carrots, minced garlic, and ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes while stirring frequently.
- Deglaze and add cabbage: Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the shredded cabbage, soy sauce (or Tamari), rice vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything well and cover the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 12-15 minutes until the cabbage reaches your desired tenderness.
- Finish and serve: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the toasted sesame oil. Serve the egg roll mixture over cooked white rice, if desired, and garnish with sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and sriracha mayo for a spicy kick.
Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey with ground chicken or pork based on preference.
- For a lower-carb option, omit the rice and serve the egg roll mixture as is.
- Adjust the seasoning or add more soy sauce for extra saltiness, or add more rice vinegar for tang.
- Ensure cabbage is shredded finely to cook evenly and quickly.
- Sriracha mayo adds a creamy, spicy element but is optional.
