Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 1 tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger
- 1 bag (14–16 oz) coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage + carrots)
- 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce (optional for extra richness)
- 1–2 tsp sriracha (optional for heat)
- Salt & black pepper to taste
Optional Toppings
- Sliced green onions
- Toasted sesame seeds
- Drizzle of sriracha or spicy mayo
- Crispy wonton strips for crunch
Instructions
- Brown the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sesame oil and ground chicken. Cook, breaking into crumbles, until the chicken is fully browned and cooked through.
- Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and the onion is softened.
- Add Vegetables and Sauces: Stir in the coleslaw mix, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hoisin sauce if using. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Cook the Vegetable Mix: Continue cooking for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage softens to your desired texture but still retains some crunch.
- Season and Add Heat: Stir in sriracha, salt, and black pepper to taste, adjusting based on your preference for spice and seasoning.
- Serve and Garnish: Serve the chicken egg roll bowl warm topped with optional sliced green onions, toasted sesame seeds, a drizzle of sriracha or spicy mayo, and crispy wonton strips for added texture.

- Add more crunch by tossing in water chestnuts, bean sprouts, or edamame along with the coleslaw mix.
- This dish is meal prep friendly and reheats well for lunches throughout the week.
