4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground sausage
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions
  • 1 14–16 oz bag coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 teaspoons minced garlic

Instructions
 

Brown the Sausage:

  1. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground sausage and cook until evenly browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Do not drain the rendered fat, as it will enhance the flavor of the dish.

Add the Vegetables:

  1. Reduce the heat to medium. Stir in the coleslaw mix and continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until the cabbage begins to wilt and soften slightly.

Incorporate Aromatics and Seasoning:

  1. Add the minced ginger, minced garlic, and soy sauce to the skillet. Stir thoroughly to combine, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed. Allow the mixture to simmer for several minutes, or until the cabbage is fully tender but not mushy.

Finish the Dish:

  1. Drizzle the sesame oil over the contents of the skillet and gently mix to coat. Remove from heat.

Garnish and Serve:

  1. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top and serve warm as a standalone dish or alongside steamed rice, cauliflower rice, or a light salad.
