Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 small sweet onion, finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 small head cabbage, about 8 cups shredded
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

For Serving (Optional)

  • Cooked white rice
  • Green onions (green parts only), thinly sliced
  • Toasted sesame seeds
  • Sriracha mayo

Instructions

  1. Cook the turkey: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook for about 5-6 minutes until it is almost fully cooked, stirring occasionally to break it up.
  2. Sauté onion and aromatics: Push the turkey to one side of the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the finely diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened. Then add the shredded carrots, minced garlic, and ginger, cooking for an additional 2 minutes while stirring frequently.
  3. Deglaze the pan: Pour in the chicken broth, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet to incorporate more flavor into the dish.
  4. Add cabbage and seasonings: Add the shredded cabbage, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together well, then cover the skillet with a lid.
  5. Simmer the dish: Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook covered for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage reaches your preferred tenderness.
  6. Finish with sesame oil and serve: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the toasted sesame oil for a nutty aroma. Serve the egg roll in a bowl mixture over cooked white rice if desired and garnish with sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a drizzle of sriracha mayo.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground turkey with ground pork or chicken for variation.
  • For a keto or low-carb meal, serve without rice.
  • Shredding the cabbage finely helps it cook more evenly and blend into the dish.
  • Adjust the soy sauce and salt amount depending on the saltiness of your tamari or broth.
  • Sriracha mayo adds a spicy, creamy element but can be omitted for a dairy-free version.
