Ingredients
Protein
7 ounces ground beefCondiments
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce1/2 teaspoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Vegetables
1/2 small onion, chopped2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 1/2 cups finely sliced napa or green cabbage
2 cups finely sliced baby bok choy
1/2 cup shredded carrots
2 1/2 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms
1 medium scallion, sliced
Instructions
- Prepare the skillet: Set a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat to heat up, ensuring it’s hot before adding ingredients.
- Cook the beef: Add the ground beef and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce into the skillet. Cook while breaking the meat into small pieces using a wooden spoon until browned, about 3 minutes.
- Sauté aromatics: Stir in the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated fresh ginger. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the vegetables soften and become fragrant.
- Add vegetables: Mix in the cabbage, bok choy, carrots, and mushrooms. Stir well to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables start to wilt but remain crunchy.
- Add seasonings: Pour in the remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons of soy sauce, Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry), and toasted sesame oil. Stir to coat everything evenly.
- Finish cooking: Continue stirring occasionally and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until all vegetables are wilted yet still retain some crunch.
- Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with sliced scallions. Serve hot.
Notes
- I used coconut aminos instead of soy sauce as a substitution.
- This dish is best enjoyed immediately but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Adjust the vegetable quantities to your preference for more or less crunch and flavor.
