- 1 pound ground pork
- 4 cups coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
Instructions
- Heat the oil: In a large skillet, warm 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat until shimmering, prepping the pan for cooking the pork.
- Cook the pork: Add 1 pound of ground pork to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

- Incorporate vegetables and sauce: Add 4 cups of coleslaw mix to the skillet along with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, stirring everything together until the cabbage wilts down, about 3-5 minutes.
- Finish and serve: Remove the skillet from heat, then sprinkle 2 chopped green onions on top for a fresh crunch. Serve immediately for a flavorful, low-carb meal.

- For a healthier option, use lean ground turkey or chicken instead of pork.
- Adjust the soy sauce quantity to control saltiness according to your taste preference.
- Try adding a splash of rice vinegar or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra tang or heat.
- This dish is perfect for meal prep and stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- You can substitute the coleslaw mix with freshly shredded cabbage and carrots if preferred.
