Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil - or vegetable oil
- 1 pound ground pork - or ground chicken, ground turkey, ground beef
- 5 cloves garlic - roughly chopped
- 1 (1-inch) thumb fresh ginger - minced (approximately 2 teaspoons)
- 2 cups green cabbage - thinly sliced
- 2 cups purple cabbage - thinly sliced
- 1 cup matchstick carrots
- 5 green onions - sliced
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the light soy sauce, peanut butter, mirin, hoisin sauce, dark soy sauce, and chili sauce until well combined, then set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Cook the ground pork for approximately 8 minutes breaking it up into smaller pieces until browned. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet with the cooked pork, and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the green and purple cabbage and carrots to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
- Pour the sauce mixture over the stir-fried pork and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly with the sauce then cook for about 3 minutes for the flavors to meld together.
- Add the sliced green onions to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until slightly softened. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Garnish with freshly chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- The low-sodium soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and dark soy sauce may or may not contain gluten, depending on the brand/manufacturer. For a gluten-free version, swap the soy sauce with coconut aminos or tamari and the hoisin sauce for a gluten-free hoisin sauce. Unfortunately, there isn't a widely available dark soy sauce that is gluten-free.
- This recipe is not keto-friendly but it is low-carb.
- Transfer leftovers to an airtight container and place in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
