Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 small sweet onion, finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 small head cabbage (about 8 cups shredded)

Notes

  • Do not overcook cabbage to keep a slight crunch.
  • Use tamari for a gluten-free option.
  • Ground chicken or beef can replace turkey.
  • Add chili flakes or sriracha for heat.
  • Best enjoyed fresh; refrigeration up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in skillet for best texture.
