# Steps:
01 -
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking apart with a spatula, until nearly cooked through, about 5–6 minutes.
02 -
Push turkey to one side of the skillet. Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the empty space, then add diced onion. Sauté for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
03 -
Add shredded carrots, minced garlic, and ginger. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant.
04 -
Pour in chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
05 -
Add shredded cabbage, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and cover with a lid.
06 -
Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook covered for 12–15 minutes or until cabbage is tender to your preference. Remove pan from heat and stir in toasted sesame oil.
07 -
Spoon mixture into serving bowls. If desired, serve over cooked white rice and top with sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sriracha mayo.
# Notes:
01 -
Freshly shredded cabbage provides optimal texture, but packaged coleslaw mix is a suitable alternative.
02 -
Tamari is a naturally gluten-free substitute for soy sauce and provides similar depth of flavour with lower sodium content.
03 -
The dish will keep refrigerated for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium-low for best results, avoiding the microwave to prevent excess moisture.
