Egg Roll Skillet
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive or vegetable oil
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp minced peeled fresh ginger
- 14 ounces coleslaw mix
- 2 tbsp tamari, soy sauce, or coconut aminos
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
- 1 tsp toasted (Asian) sesame oil

Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork and onion, and season with the salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until the meat is cooked through and the onion is tender, about 8 minutes.
