Ingredients
1 pound ground chicken or pork
4 green onions (whites and greens separated)
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
4 cloves minced garlic
16 ounces coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
Sesame seeds for garnish
Crumbled tofu for vegan

Instructions
1-Gather and Prep Ingredients: Start by preparing all your ingredients. Shred the cabbage if needed, grate the ginger, mince the garlic, and slice the green onions. This step helps everything cook evenly and speeds up the process.
2-Cook the Protein: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 pound of ground chicken or pork. Break it up as it cooks and drain any excess fat. This builds a solid base for the flavors.
3-Add Aromatics and Veggies: Stir in the whites of the 4 green onions, 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger, 4 cloves minced garlic, and 16 ounces coleslaw mix. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. For more tips on prepping veggies, consider our turkey carcass soup recipe that uses similar techniques.
4-Season and Finish: Add 3 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 teaspoon sesame oil, then stir and cook for 1 more minute. Divide the mixture into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, the greens of the green onions, and sesame seeds. Serve right away for the freshest taste.
