About This Recipe:
Chinese Napa cabbage is one of my favorite Asian vegetables, and it is in my opinion the star of this dish. This Chinese cabbage bowl is packed with healthy vegetables, protein, and an easy made in pan sauce. You can really use any type of ground meat in this recipe- this time I used ground chicken, but I’ve also made this with ground turkey or pork. I love eating this with steamed jasmine rice, so that the delicious sauce gets absorbed into the rice. Leftovers are just as good so make the entire batch!
Enjoy!
