Ingredients

1 tbsp cooking oil canola, vegetable, peanut, or similar
1/2 cup diced red onion
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger minced
1 lb ground pork
2 tsp sriracha or hot pepper sauce
2 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup shredded carrots
1 medium red bell pepper thinly sliced
2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp MSG
2 medium green onions thinly sliced, for garnish
1/2 cup wonton strips for garnish
1/2 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is heated, add the red onion. Cook 2-3 minutes, or until onion becomes translucent. Add the garlic and ginger, then cook about one minute more.
Add the ground pork and sriracha sauce. Use a spatula to brown the pork, stirring occasionally. Cook 5-7 minutes or until no pink remains.
Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and MSG. Stir until well combined. Cook until the veggies are tender, about 3-5 minutes depending on your preferred doneness.
Remove from heat, then garnish with sliced green onions, wonton strips, and sesame seeds. Serve immediately, or divide into meal prep containers. Add a side of cooked white rice if desired.

Notes

If preparing as a meal prep option, reduce cooking time after adding the vegetables by 1-2 minutes to avoid overcooked textures.
