Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 lb ground turkey or chicken
- 2 medium carrots, shredded or thinly sliced
- 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Optional: sriracha, chili oil, crispy wonton strips
Instructions
- Heat olive oil or sesame oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
- Add garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in ground turkey or chicken. Cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
- Add carrots and cabbage. Stir and cook for 3–5 minutes to slightly soften the vegetables.
- Pour in chicken broth, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
- Simmer for 15–20 minutes, until the cabbage is tender and flavors are well blended.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil and stir.
- Ladle into bowls and top with green onions. Add optional sriracha, chili oil, or wonton strips if desired.
Notes
- Use ground beef, tofu, or shrimp instead of turkey for variety.
- Add mushrooms, bok choy, or spinach for extra veggies.
- Turn it into a noodle soup by adding rice noodles or ramen.
- Whisk in a beaten egg at the end for egg drop-style ribbons.
- Use ground ginger if fresh is unavailable—about 1/2 teaspoon.
