Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 pound cabbage, shredded
- 8 cups chicken broth
- ⅔ cup carrots, chopped
- ⅓ cup yellow onion, diced
- ¼ cup scallions, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons liquid aminos
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the pot: Warm a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat to prepare for cooking the ground beef.
- Cook the beef: Add the ground beef along with salt and pepper. Brown the beef thoroughly, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Sauté onions and carrots: Push the browned beef to one side of the pot. Add diced onions to the empty side and sauté until translucent. Then add chopped carrots and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
- Add aromatics: Stir in minced ginger and garlic, sautéing for about 15 seconds until fragrant.
- Combine ingredients: Pour in the chicken broth along with the cooked beef, shredded cabbage, liquid aminos, toasted sesame oil, and Sriracha. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Simmer the soup: Cover the pot with the lid slightly offset to allow steam to escape. Let the soup simmer gently for 25 minutes or until the cabbage and carrots reach a tender texture.
- Finish and serve: Stir in thinly sliced scallions for fresh flavor just before serving. Ladle the hot soup into bowls and enjoy.

- You can substitute ground pork or turkey for the beef if desired.
- Adjust the Sriracha quantity to control soup spiciness.
- Liquid aminos can be replaced with soy sauce if preferred, noting it may alter sodium content.
- For a gluten-free version, ensure the liquid aminos or soy sauce used are gluten-free.
- This soup pairs well with steamed rice or is delicious on its own as a low-carb option.
