Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or other light oil
  • 1 bunch scallions chopped - white & green parts separated
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger chopped finely
  • 1 pound ground pork or ground turkey
  • 1 bag fresh coleslaw mix or 10 oz cabbage
  • 1 large carrot shredded
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons Hoisin Sauce I find a GF version at the Asian market
  • 1 large lime
  • 1-2 large Thai chilies chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Set your fresh ingredients out and ready - this stir fry goes fast
  • Heat the avocado oil in a wok or large, flat skillet and add the white parts of the scallions and ginger - cook until soft - about 3 minutes
  • Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds
  • Add the pork and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until it is no longer pink and had a bit of lovely brown char - 5-6 minutes
  • Add the soy sauce and sesame oil and cook for a couple of minutes to let the flavors meld
  • Add the coleslaw mix and carrots (you can just use the coleslaw mix, but I love the extra carrots). Cover and cook until the cabbage and carrots just lose their raw flavor - 3-4 minutes
  • Add the Hoisin sauce and simmer for a couple more minutes
  • Add the green parts of the scallions
  • Give it all a good squeeze of lime
  • Serve with rice (or cauliflower rice) and a big wedge of lime - YUM!
