Chicken Egg Roll in a Bowl

Prep Time: 5 mins

  • Cook Time: 15 mins
  • Total Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground chicken (or ground turkey, beef or pork)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and ground pepper, to taste (just a little to season the chicken)
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 1 teaspoon roasted red chili paste (or more if you like the spice)
  • 4 cups coleslaw mix
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

    Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken to the pan, season with a little salt and pepper (you don’t need much since there is a lot of sodium in the soy sauce), and cook for about 6 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through, stirring to crumble.
  2. While the chicken is cooking, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and roasted red chili paste in a small bowl; set aside.
  3. Once the ground chicken is cooked through, add the coleslaw mix to the skillet and stir everything together until the coleslaw mix has softened.  Pour the sauce in the skillet, stirring well until everything is completely coated.  Cook for a few more minutes until the sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes.
  4. Serve over white or brown rice, or you can enjoy the meal as it is, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.  Enjoy!
