Ingredients
For the sauce:
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
For the bowl:
- 1 shallot, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 cups coleslaw mix + cruciferous salad mix, (shredded cabbage & carrots – can use a 14oz pre-shredded bag or shred your own. We also added some of the cruciferous mix from Trader Joe’s as well.)
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 lb ground pork, (can sub ground chicken, beef, or turkey)
- Salt and pepper
- Sesame seeds, (optional topping)
Instructions
Prepare the sauce by mixing all of the sauce ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.
Chop shallot, garlic, and green onions as noted.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium high heat and add in sesame oil. Once hot, add in shallot and garlic. Saute for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add in ground pork. Break the pork into bits and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is cooked and has formed some brown crispy bits on the pieces.
Once the pork is cooked, add in the coleslaw and/or cruciferous veggie mix and green onions. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the veggies begin to soften. Turn heat to low.
Add in the sauce to the skillet. Mix everything together well and cook for a few minutes or until the cabbage is cooked to your liking. Remove from heat and serve. Top with optional sesame seeds.
