Ingredients
3 cups red or green cabbage, chopped
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 scallions, thinly chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1½ tablespoons tamari sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
8 oz (220 g) ground beef
1 carrot, cut into thin strips
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and 1 clove of garlic. Cook for 5–6 minutes, breaking the meat apart as it browns.
While the beef cooks, chop the cabbage, carrot, bell pepper, parsley (or cilantro), and scallions.
Stir cabbage, carrot, crushed red pepper, another garlic clove, and scallions into the beef. Cover and cook for 2–3 minutes to soften the vegetables.
Add bell pepper, remaining garlic, and tamari sauce. Stir and cook for another 2–3 minutes, adding a little oil if needed.
Turn off heat and stir in parsley or cilantro.
Serve immediately.
Notes
Red cabbage adds sweetness and color, but green cabbage works just as well.
Adjust crushed red pepper to taste for more or less heat.
Leftovers reheat well and are great for meal prep.
