20-MINUTE HEALTHY GROUND BEEF & CABBAGE RECIPE
This 20-Minute healthy ground beef and cabbage recipe is low carb, gluten free dairy free, spicy and an absolutely delicious healthy dinner idea for busy weeknights!
INGREDIENTS
3 cups cabbage, chopped
250 g ground beef (about 8 oz)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp tamari sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tsp chili flakes
1 tsp ginger, minced
INSTRUCTIONS
Add the beef to a non-stick pan, breaking it apart as well as you can while cooking at medium-high heat. Cover the pan with a lid for 4-5 minutes. I always add just a little bit of water to make sure the beef doesn’t burn and get too dry. Please, make sure there’s no water in the pan before adding the rest of the ingredients.
Add the chopped cabbage, chili flakes, 1 garlic clove, 1 tbsp tamari sauce and 1 tbsp oil (I used olive oil). Cover with a lid and cook for about 3 minutes.
Take the lid off, add 1 tbsp tamari, 1 tbsp olive oil and the ginger, the rest of the garlic and let cook for 4-5 more minutes or until any excess liquid is gone (there might be some from cooking the cabbage).
Serve with some toasted sesame seeds on top! Enjoy!
