I've jotted down the basic recipe to a meal we enjoy. I usually adjust it to taste as I cook. I eat this in lettuce cups but I also serve it over brown rice or with noodles. I adapted the dipping sauce from another recipe because it like so much.

Ingredients

4 scallions, coarsely chopped (green and white parts)
fresh ginger (2-inch piece peeled and grated or finely chopped)
1 cup green cabbage (thinly sliced)
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped and halved
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 -2 teaspoon hot chili sauce
3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
3 -4 tablespoons cilantro leaves
2 limes (zest and juice of 2 limes)
1 lb ground turkey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large pan. When hot add ground turkey and stir fry it for 5 minutes. Add Hoisin sauce, hot chili sauce and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Continue to stir fry until almost cooked through. (I use the pampered chef tool to break up the meat into small pieces).
In a bowl, combine the scallions, half of the ginger, cabbage, half of the chili pepper, the garlic, the 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and the lime zest.
Add vegetable bowl mixture to wok and continue to stir fry until cooked but still slightly crisp.
While the turkey and vegetables cook, make the dipping sauce. In a bowl, combine the remaining ginger and chili pepper, the 1/3 cup of soy sauce, the lime juice, the sesame oil, the honey and a splash of water. Taste and adjust the seasoning; if it's too salty, add another drizzle of honey.
Before serving the meat stir in the cilantro leaves.
Garnish with extra cilantro leaves and serve with the spicy lime dipping sauce.
Wrap in lettuce cups or serve over noodles or rice.

1 cup sliced mushrooms
12 ounces cabbage and carrot coleslaw mix, about 6 cups

1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a wok or very large skillet.

Tips:

To save time, use a mandoline or food processor to thinly slice the cabbage.
If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven.
Be sure to heat the oil over high heat before adding the cabbage. This will help to prevent the cabbage from sticking to the pan.
Stir-fry the cabbage for only a few minutes, or until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking the cabbage will make it mushy.
Add the sauce ingredients to the cabbage and stir-fry for another minute or two. Be sure to coat the cabbage evenly with the sauce.
Serve the spicy Asian cabbage immediately with rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Spicy Asian cabbage is a flavorful and healthy side dish that can be easily prepared in under 30 minutes. It is a great way to use up any leftover cabbage and is a perfect complement to any Asian-inspired meal.
