Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey or lean ground beef

  • 1/2 head of cabbage

  • 1 cup shredded carrots

  • 2 tbsp minced garlic

  • 2 green onion stalks

  • 1/2 cup diced sweet onion

  • 1/4 cup low sodium chicken orĀ 

  • vegetable broth

  • 1/2 tsp Ginger paste

  • 2 tsp rice wine vinegar

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or alternative

  • 1-2 tbsp hoisin

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Olive oil spray if needed for pan

  • Brown or jasmine rice

Preparation

  1. Cook your rice in a rice cooker according to directions on the package. For ours we typically cook 1 cup rice with 2 cups water.

  2. Slice cabbage into thin pieces.

  3. In a pan on the stovetop, medium heat, spray olive oil and cook ground turkey or ground beef until cooked through.

  4. While protein is cooking, chop your carrots, and dice your onion.

  5. In a separate pan on the stovetop, saute your onion for a few minutes until translucent.

  6. Then add your garlic, ginger, and saute some more.

  7. Then add in your carrots to onions and mix more.

  8. When protein is cooked through, add chicken or vegetable broth to the protein to add some moisture and flavor.

  9. Then add cabbage, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Next add your onions and carrots to cabbage and protein mixture. Also add hoisin if you want to add some sweetness. Stir well and cover with a lid. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes, or until cabbage is cooked to your desired tenderness.

  10. By the time the cabbage concoction is cooked through, your rice should be done. Layer rice at the bottom of your bowl, then scoop your cabbage mixture on top. Feel free to garnish with green onion.
