Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 pound Ground Turkey
- 1 medium Sweet Onion, finely diced
- 2 cups Shredded Carrots
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger, minced
- 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
- 4 cups Shredded Cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce or Tamari
- 1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon Toasted Sesame Oil
- Optional: Cooked white rice, green onions, toasted sesame seeds, sriracha mayo
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.
- Push the turkey to one side of the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced sweet onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add the shredded carrots, minced garlic, and minced ginger to the skillet. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
- Add the shredded cabbage, soy sauce (or tamari), rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Cover the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender to your liking.
- Remove from heat and drizzle with toasted sesame oil. Stir to incorporate.
- Serve the Egg Roll Bowl as is, or over cooked rice. Garnish with optional toppings like green onions, sesame seeds, and sriracha mayo.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- This dish can be made vegetarian by substituting ground turkey with crumbled tofu or tempeh.
- Adjust seasoning with salt and soy sauce to your personal preference.
- Ensure cabbage is cooked to your desired tenderness to avoid it becoming mushy.
