Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 to 1.25 pounds ground pork (or ground turkey, chicken, or beef)
  • 1 small green cabbage, thinly sliced (or a 14–16 oz bag coleslaw mix)
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned or shredded (optional for strict keto)
  • 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground ginger)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari (use coconut aminos for soy-free)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (unseasoned)
  • 1–2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1–2 teaspoons sriracha or chili-garlic sauce (optional)
  • 2 eggs (optional but great for extra protein)
  • 2–3 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
  • Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Prep the veggies: Thinly slice the cabbage and onion. Shred the carrot if using. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger. Slice the green onions.
  2. Brown the meat: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground pork and break it up. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, 5–7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. Add aromatics: Stir in garlic and ginger. Cook 30–60 seconds until fragrant, stirring often so it doesn’t burn.
  4. Cook the veggies: Add onion and carrot. Sauté 2–3 minutes until just starting to soften. Add cabbage and toss well. Cook 5–7 minutes, stirring, until cabbage is tender-crisp.
  5. Make the sauce: Stir in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sriracha if using. Drizzle in sesame oil. Taste and adjust salt, pepper, and heat.
  6. Add eggs (optional): Push everything to one side. Crack eggs into the empty space and scramble quickly. Fold into the mixture once set.
  7. Finish and garnish: Stir in green onions. Top with sesame seeds and a squeeze of lime if you like.
  8. Portion for meal prep: Divide into 4–5 containers. Let cool slightly before sealing.
