Wash and prepare the vegetables. Remove the core from the cabbage and thinly slice it. Peel the carrot and cut it into matchsticks. Seed and slice the red bell pepper into thin strips. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the coconut oil and let it melt.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add the sliced carrots and red bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the cabbage to the skillet and stir well to combine. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage begins to soften but maintains a slight crunch.
Pour the coconut aminos over the vegetables and drizzle with sesame oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well to evenly coat the vegetables.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender but not mushy.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish or add your choice of Paleo protein for a complete meal.
