Chicken Egg Roll Bowls

When it comes to lunches, I prefer a meal that is protein-rich that won’t weigh me down. I’m a huge fan of Asian flavors, so this dish hits the spot. Chock-full of lean chicken and colorful veggies, this is a meal you can prep and enjoy throughout the week (and feel good about). I like mine served with a healthy dose of sriracha on top, but if you aren’t fond of spicy food, simply finish your bowl with an extra splash of tamari or soy sauce.





1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until no longer pink. Add the tamari (or soy sauce) and transfer the mixture to a bowl.

2. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the onion, garlic, ginger and mushrooms; cook for 5 minutes.

3. Add the cabbage and carrots and cook for 5 minutes longer, or until the cabbage has softened slightly. Add the cooked chicken back to the pan and finish with chili garlic sauce and sesame oil.

4. Scoop the mixture into serving bowls and garnish with sriracha, green onion and sesame seeds.
