How to Make This Recipe?

Now, let’s work through this step by step. Grab your skillet and let’s get cooking!

Step 1: Brown the Turkey

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once it’s hot and shimmering, toss in the ground turkey. You want to cook this until it’s almost done—about 5-6 minutes. The key? You’ll want it to be nice and crumbly, not mushy.

Step 2: Add the Aromatics

Now, push that turkey to one side of the pan. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and throw in your finely diced onion. Sauté it for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until it starts to get that golden, translucent look that tells you it’s time for the next step. After that, toss in your shredded carrots, garlic, and ginger. Cook for another 2 minutes while stirring frequently—your kitchen will smell UNREAL!

Step 3: Layer in the Cabbage

Pour in the chicken broth next, and make sure you’re scraping up all those tasty brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Once that’s done, it’s cabbage time! Add the shredded cabbage, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir it up real good, cover, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cabbage reaches your desired tenderness. Remember—you want it soft but still with a hint of crunch!

Step 4: Final Touches

When the cabbage is ready, remove it from the heat and swirl in that toasted sesame oil—we want all those flavors to come together!

Step 5: Serve It Up

Scoop that deliciousness over a bed of cooked white rice if you’re using it. Then, top with green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and don’t forget that Sriracha mayo if you like a little heat.
