Egg Roll in a Bowl

Prep: 20 minutes mins
Cook: 15 minutes mins
Total: 35 minutes mins
Servings: 6 servings
Rate Pin Print
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb 99% extra lean ground turkey
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 13.5 oz bag coleslaw mix (no dressing), (397 grams)
  • 1 12 oz bag broccoli slaw, (340 grams)
  • 1 6 oz bag snow peas, sliced, (170 grams)
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced, (20 grams)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil, divided, (1/2 oz)

Sauces

  • 6 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, (3 oz)
  • 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar, (1 oz)
  • 1 tbsp sriracha sauce, (1/2 oz)
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce, (1/2 oz)

Optional Toppings (Not Included in Nutrition Info)

  • sriracha mayo
  • wonton strips
  • green onion, chopped
  • sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Heat 1 tsp sesame oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add broccoli slaw and snow peas, tossing to distribute the oil. Cover and sauté for 3-5 minutes or until broccoli is tender crisp (add 1-2 tbsp of water to help it along if needed). Add to a large bowl and set aside to cool.
  • Heat remaining sesame oil in the same large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add garlic and sauté until it becomes fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add ground turkey, ground pork, sriracha, and ginger to the sauté pan. Break meat apart with wooden spatula as it cooks, ensuring sriracha and ginger are distributed throughout the meat chunks.
  • When meat is mostly cooked through but still has spots of pink, add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and hoisin sauce. Continue stirring and breaking apart meat until cooked through, about 7-10 minutes total.
  • Once meat is cooked, add coleslaw and mix until combined with meat. Add broccoli slaw and snow peas back into sauté pan and mix until combined.
  • Divide mixture evenly into 6 serving dishes or meal prep containers. Top with and desired optional toppings before serving.

Tips & Tricks

  • If you don’t have hoisin sauce on hand or can’t find it, use 1/2 tbsp brown sugar instead. It doesn’t have the same flavor, but will lend some of the same sweetness.
  • For a lower fat version, use only lean ground turkey.

  • 1/4 tsp chili powder

  • Remove chicken from brine and rinse with cold water. Pat dry on a paper towel, then pound down the thicker end of the chicken breast until they are even thickness across.
