Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken or turkey
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by washing and chopping vegetables. Grate fresh ginger and mince garlic cloves.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken or turkey and cook until fully browned, breaking meat into small crumbles, approximately 6-7 minutes.
- Once meat is cooked through, add minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to release aromatic flavors.
- Add shredded carrots and cabbage to the skillet. Sauté vegetables with the meat for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
- Pour soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free option) and rice vinegar over the mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine and coat all ingredients evenly.
- Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing flavors to meld together.
- Remove from heat and transfer to serving bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro on top.
- Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free Spring Roll in a Bowl immediately.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, wash and chop all your vegetables in advance. You can even prepare the sauce ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to a week.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh garlic, ginger, and cilantro enhance the flavors significantly, so opt for fresh over dried whenever possible.
- Customize Your Bowl: Feel free to add other veggies like bell peppers, snap peas, or bean sprouts to suit your taste. This recipe is versatile and can be tailored to your preferences!
- Control the Heat: If you like a bit of spice, consider adding a dash of chili sauce or red pepper flakes to the meat mixture for an extra kick.
- Serve with Rice: For a more filling meal, serve your Spring Roll in a Bowl over a bed of cooked rice or quinoa.
- Leftover Magic: This dish makes excellent leftovers! Store any extras in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy them the next day for a quick lunch.
