Potsticker Noodle Bowls taste just like potstickers without the tedious filling and sealing. This simple skillet recipe is ready in just 30 minutes!

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground meat (turkey or pork)

• Pinch of pepper (white or black) 

• ½ cup + an additional 1 T. of soy sauce or soy free Tamari sauce

• ¼ cup chicken broth

• 1 Tablesppon rice vinegar

• 1 tsp. Ground ginger

• 2 tsp. Sesame oil

• Pinch of red pepper flakes

• 8 oz rice stir fry noodles

• 14 oz. bag coleslaw mix

• 1 bunch green onions chopped

• 4 tsp. Minced garlic

Directions

• In a bowl, combine the ground meat with pepper and 1 tablespoon of the Tamari; mix manually and set aside.

• Whisk together the remaining Tamari, broth, vinegar, ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a separate small container.

• Cook the rice noodles as indicated on the packaging, boiling for several minutes until they reach an al dente texture before rinsing with cold water.

• While boiling noodles, brown the meat in a large skillet over high heat. Incorporate the coleslaw and scallions, stir-frying until softened, then add garlic for an additional minute.

• Toss the noodles and sauce into the pan; continue stir-frying until the noodles are tender, adding a splash of broth or covering with a lid if extra moisture is needed.

• Allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving, as the flavors are more pronounced when the temperature is slightly cooled.
