Ingredients

– 1 lb (450g) lean ground beef

– 1 small head of cabbage, shredded

– 1 small onion, diced

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

– 1 tablespoon olive oil

– 1 teaspoon sesame oil

– 1 teaspoon ground ginger

– 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

– 1/2 teaspoon salt

– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

– 1 medium carrot, julienned (optional)

– 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

– Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

2. Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.

3. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

4. Stir in garlic, ground ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute.

5. Add shredded cabbage and julienned carrot. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender.

6. Pour in soy sauce and sesame oil, stirring well to coat everything evenly.

7. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

8. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

– Use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a leaner option.

– Add bell peppers or mushrooms for extra veggies.

– Serve over cauliflower rice for a low-carb meal or regular rice for extra heartiness.

– Adjust seasoning to taste by adding more soy sauce or spice.
