Addictive Asian Beef Slaw Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon of canola oil
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon of minced fresh ginger
- 1 pound of ground beef
- ½ head of white cabbage, shredded
- ½ head of red cabbage, shredded
- 2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- ½ cup of reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons of sesame oil
- A dash of hot sauce, to taste
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro (adjust to taste)
- 1 wedge of lime
How To Make Addictive Asian Beef Slaw:
Heat canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger; sauté until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crumbly, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Push the ground beef to one side of the skillet and add white cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, and red bell pepper. Combine vegetables with the beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender, about 5 to 6 minutes.
Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, and hot sauce until well combined with the beef and vegetables. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the slaw garnished with fresh cilantro, a wedge of lime, and additional hot sauce as desired.
Recipe Notes:
Marinate the beef in soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger for at least 30 minutes to deepen the flavor.
Grill or sear the beef over high heat until just cooked, then slice thinly for the best texture.
Use a colorful slaw mix (cabbage, carrots, bell peppers) for maximum crunch and visual appeal.
Prepare the dressing by whisking lime juice, sesame oil, soy sauce, and honey together until well combined.
Add the beef to the slaw just before serving, then drizzle with dressing and garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro for freshness.
Serve immediately to maintain crisp texture; leftovers can stay fresh refrigerated for up to 2 days.
