Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups napa cabbage, chopped
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- In a separate large pan, add the chopped napa cabbage and julienned carrot. Cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is wilted.
- Combine the wilted slaw with the ground beef mixture and toss to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
- Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
- Add sliced bell peppers or snap peas to the slaw for extra crunch and flavor.
