- 1 ½ cups sweet onion finely diced
- 1 cup carrots peeled and shredded
- 3 garlic cloves finely minced

Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground meat and cook until almost cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
- Push turkey to the side of the pan and add onion and remaining tablespoon of oil. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add shredded carrots, garlic, and ginger and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour chicken broth in the pan and scrape any brown bits from the bottom.

Notes
*Recipe was updated on 11/6/23 to include an additional cup of cabbage, tablespoon of soy sauce, teaspoon of rice vinegar, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
Prep-Ahead Instructions
This is the perfect make-ahead dish, the flavor marries as it sits, so you can prepare it a couple of days in advance. Or, simply shred the carrots and cabbage the day before to have them ready.
Storage Directions
Store refrigerated for 3-4 days. I would not recommend freezing this recipe. Excess water will accumulate after thawing, which will cause the cabbage to become mushy. Warm up leftovers in a skillet over medium-low heat for the best taste and texture. You can also warm it up in the microwave, but it will be soggier.
