Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb ground chicken, pork, or turkey

Vegetables

  • 3 cups chopped cabbage
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • Optional: 1 cup sliced mushrooms or bean sprouts

Liquids and Sauces

  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth (gluten-free)
  • 3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (to drizzle before serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Finely chop cabbage, carrots, green onions, garlic, and ginger to ensure balanced flavors and delightful texture in every bite.
  2. Cook the Protein: In a large pot, sauté ground chicken, pork, or turkey over medium heat until cooked through and slightly browned to develop a savory depth.
  3. Add Aromatics and Vegetables: Stir in garlic and ginger and cook for about a minute until fragrant. Then add chopped cabbage, carrots, green onions, and any optional mushrooms or bean sprouts. Cook briefly to soften slightly while maintaining some crunch.
  4. Pour in Broth and Seasonings: Add gluten-free soy sauce or tamari along with chicken or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Simmer and Finish: Reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until vegetables are tender and soup flavors are balanced. Drizzle sesame oil over the soup just before serving for a toasty, nutty aroma.

Notes

  • Use fresh ginger and garlic for optimal flavor intensity.
  • Cook protein in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pot and ensure proper browning.
  • Keep vegetables slightly crisp by not overcooking cabbage and carrots.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings slowly as gluten-free soy sauce can vary in saltiness.
  • Add sesame oil at the end of cooking to preserve its nutty aroma.
