Description

A hearty, low-carb, and satisfying meal that delivers all the flavors of a classic egg roll without the deep frying. Packed with vegetables, protein, and umami, it’s a one-skillet wonder.


Ingredients

2 Tbsp olive oil, divided

1 lb ground turkey

1 small sweet onion, finely diced

1 cup shredded carrots

3 garlic cloves, finely minced

1 tsp finely minced fresh ginger

¼ cup chicken broth

1 small head cabbage (about 8 cups shredded)

3 Tbsp soy sauce or tamari

1 Tbsp rice vinegar

¾ tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

1 tsp toasted sesame oil

Optional for Serving:

Cooked white rice

Green onions, thinly sliced (green parts only)

Toasted sesame seeds

Sriracha mayo


Instructions

  1. Cook turkey: Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook for 5–6 minutes until nearly cooked through.
  2. Sauté veggies: Push turkey to one side. Add remaining oil and onion. Sauté for 3–4 minutes. Add carrots, garlic, and ginger; cook 2 more minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Deglaze: Pour in chicken broth and scrape up brown bits from the pan.
  4. Add cabbage: Stir in shredded cabbage, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cover.
  5. Simmer: Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook covered for 12–15 minutes or until cabbage is tender.
  6. Finish: Stir in toasted sesame oil.
  7. Serve: Spoon into bowls over rice if desired. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sriracha mayo.

Notes

  • For a protein switch, use ground pork, beef, or chicken instead of turkey.
  • For a low-carb option, serve without rice or use cauliflower rice.
  • Add extra vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or snap peas for more nutrition.
  • Top with crispy wonton strips or chopped peanuts for a crunchy finish.
