Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef (nutrition calculated with 85/15 beef)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 14 ounces shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

  • 1 whole egg
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions

Equipment

  • large skillet

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, brown the beef until no longer pink. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add the cabbage/coleslaw, soy sauce, ground ginger, and sauté until desired tenderness. Add a little water if needed for more liquid to sauté the coleslaw down.
  2. Make a well in the center of the skillet and add the egg. Scramble until done over low heat.
  3. Stir in sriracha. Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with green onions. Add additional soy sauce and sriracha if desired.

Notes

For gluten-free version, use tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. Can substitute ground pork, turkey, or chicken. Dish flavors improve after sitting in refrigerator for 1-2 days, making it excellent for meal prep.
