Egg Roll Stir-fry Recipe Tastes Like a Deconstructed Egg Roll (8 Ingredients, 30 Minutes) by Keri De Deo

I love egg rolls, but they're typically loaded with fat. So, I searched for a low-fat version and found this recipe on a food app. This deconstructed egg roll recipe is so delicious, and has become one of our main recipes practically every week. This Asian recipe is fast, healthy and delicious.

If you want to make this easy high-protein, low-carb stir-fry recipe tonight, you’ll need a few ingredients. Here is your easy gluten-free shopping list for this one-pan recipe: sesame seed oil, olive oil or cooking spray, garlic or garlic paste, ginger root or ginger paste (read about the health benefits of ginger), ground turkey (read about the health benefits of turkey), shredded carrots and cabbage or classic coleslaw mix, soy sauce, scallions and optional sriracha mayonnaise.

Variation: For a vegetarian meal, try substituting the turkey with a bag of riced cauliflower mixed with peas and carrots.

I made some adjustments to the flavor profile with this skillet egg roll recipe, and it turned out amazing. Serve this budget-friendly Asian dish for dinner with your favorite side dishes.

Cuisine: Asian / American
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 3 to 4

Ingredients

• 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 1/2 - 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, grated 
• 1-inch piece ginger root, grated
• 3/4 - 1 pound ground turkey
• 14 ounces (1 bag) classic coleslaw (shredded carrots and cabbage)
• salt or soy sauce, to taste (or tamari)
• 2 green onions, sliced
• sriracha mayonnaise, to taste (optional)

Here's how to make it: 

1. Coat the bottom of a frying pan with olive oil and sesame seed oil on medium heat. (Sesame oil can be overpowering, so start with a little. You can add more later.) When warm, add the ground turkey, garlic and ginger paste. (You could use garlic paste instead of fresh garlic cloves and ginger paste instead of fresh ginger root.)
2. Just before the turkey is fully cooked, add the coleslaw mix. Stir. If it seems dry, you can add a bit more sesame seed oil and stir. (The original recipe called for Napa cabbage and shredding your own carrots, but it's easier to use a pre-shredded coleslaw mix instead.)
3. When the cabbage is wilted and the turkey is cooked, stir in some soy sauce. (Use tamari for a gluten-free dinner.)
4. Serve in bowls and garnish with sriracha mayonnaise (if desired) and sliced green onions.
