Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup soy sauce, divided
- 1 bag (14-16 ounces) prepared coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrot mixture)
- ¼ cup chopped green onions
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: Crumble the ground beef into a large skillet and cook over medium heat until fully browned, about 6-8 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally to break up the meat. Once browned, drain off any excess fat from the skillet.
- Add Seasonings: Stir in the ground ginger, garlic powder, and half of the soy sauce (2 tablespoons). Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors throughout the beef.
- Incorporate Vegetables: Add the prepared coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrot mixture) to the skillet. Stir thoroughly to combine the veggies with the beef and spices.
- Simmer and Softening: Continue cooking the mixture over low to medium heat, stirring frequently. As the coleslaw mix softens, add the remaining soy sauce (2 tablespoons) and stir to fully infuse the flavors.
- Finish and Serve: Cook until the coleslaw is tender but still retains some crunch, approximately 3-5 minutes more depending on your preference. Remove from heat, top with chopped green onions, and add extra soy sauce if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat and calories.
- Feel free to substitute soy sauce with tamari for a gluten-free version.
- You can add a splash of sesame oil for extra depth of flavor.
- For a vegetarian alternative, replace ground beef with crumbled tofu or tempeh.
- This dish pairs well with steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
