Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 large green onions, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 4 cups colossal cabbage, shredded
- 2 medium carrots, julienned
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
- 2 cups cooked brown rice (for serving, optional)
Instructions
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove excess fat from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon behind.
Add the thinly sliced green onions (reserving some for garnish), minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet.
Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring continuously.
Stir in the shredded cabbage and julienned carrots, cooking until the cabbage begins to wilt, about 3-4 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the low sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes.
Pour the sauce mixture over the turkey and vegetables, stirring to combine.
Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through, allowing the flavors to meld.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with reserved green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve the egg roll mixture over cooked brown rice, if desired, or enjoy it on its own for a low-carb option.
