Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds ground chicken or pork (browned and drained)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 (16 ounce) bag coleslaw mix
1/2 cup shredded carrots
2/3 cup chicken broth
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 teaspoon ground ginger
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Green onion (sliced scallions)
Wonton strips
Sweet chili sauce (for drizzling)
Instructions
Brown the ground chicken or pork in a skillet and drain any excess fat. Add the cooked meat, finely chopped onion, coleslaw mix, and shredded carrots to the slow cooker.
In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth, minced garlic, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ground ginger, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes until well combined.
Pour the prepared sauce into the slow cooker over the meat and vegetable mixture. Stir everything thoroughly to ensure that all ingredients are evenly coated.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 4 to 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soften without becoming mushy.
Just before serving, garnish the dish with sliced green onions, crunchy wonton strips, and a drizzle of sweet chili sauce for added texture and flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy the delicious flavors reminiscent of an egg roll without the fuss of frying or rolling.
Notes
Use ground turkey for a leaner option.
Adjust the level of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
