PREPARATION:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1T aminos or soy sauce and cornstarch with a fork. Add your protein of choice, breaking apart the meat and stirring to coat with the sauce. Let marinate 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, chop the mushrooms finely and mince the garlic. Thinly slice the green onions. If any of your other ingredients are not yet prepped, do it now.
- Heat a wok or large, deep sauté pan over high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat. Add the marinated turkey and cook, breaking apart the meat into small bits with a heatproof spatula, until it’s fully cooked through. Add the green onions (reserve a small handful for serving) and mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms soften, about 2 additional minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the broccoli coleslaw, carrots, ginger, and garlic. Stir-fry for a few minutes, until the vegetables are softened
- Add the rice vinegar, chili paste, sesame oil, black pepper, and remaining 2T aminos or soy sauce, then stir to combine. Continue to cook for 1 additional minute. Taste and add additional soy sauce, hot sauce, or black pepper as desired.
- Scoop into serving bowls (over brown rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice, if desired).
- Serve hot, sprinkled with additional green onions.
- Makes 4 servings.
