Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet Preferably non-stick or cast iron for even browning.
  • 1 Chef's knife
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Spatula or wooden spoon For breaking up ground beef and stirring.
  • 1 Measuring Spoons

Ingredients
  

Main

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 5 green onions chopped, white and green parts separated
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 ½ pounds ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce such as sriracha
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • sea salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 14 ounce package coleslaw mix
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced onion, white parts of the green onions, and garlic. Saute until onions are translucent and garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef, sriracha, ginger, salt, and black pepper. Saute until beef is browned and crumbly, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir coleslaw mix, soy sauce, and cider vinegar into the beef mixture. Saute until coleslaw is tender, about 4 minutes more. Top with the rest of the green onions.

Notes

Achieve a deep, rich flavor by ensuring the ground beef is well-browned and crumbly; avoid overcrowding the skillet, which can steam the meat instead of searing it. For a more vibrant ginger flavor, consider using freshly grated ginger instead of ground. Don't overcook the coleslaw mix; it should be tender-crisp, not mushy. A splash of rice vinegar or a squeeze of lime at the very end can brighten the dish, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds adds a lovely textural contrast and nutty aroma for presentation.
