Ingredients

• 6 oz Ground pork or turkey
• 3 cups Coleslaw mix
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tsp Ginger
• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 2 Scallions

Steps

1. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil until it shimmers.
2. Add 6 oz of ground pork or turkey and 1 teaspoon of minced ginger. Break the meat into small crumbles with a wooden spoon.
3. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no pink remains and you see some browned crispy bits — those bits are flavor.
4. Add 3 cups of coleslaw mix straight from the bag and toss to combine with the meat.
5. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often, until the cabbage is just wilted but still has a little bite. Do not overcook it into mush.
6. Pour in 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, and toss everything for 30 seconds so the sauce coats every strand.
7. Top with 2 sliced scallions, taste for salt, and serve hot in bowls.
