Instructions 

SLAW:

  • Peel cucumber and cut in half moon shape. In a large bowl, combine slaw mix, mango, cilantro, cucumbers, olive oil, rice vinegar and salt and pepper. Toss well and set aside.

MEAT:

  • While slaw is pickling, prepare the meat. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Mirin, rice vinegar, sesame oil and garlic. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and cook ground meat for 4 minutes. Add the whites from the green onions and soy sauce mixture to the meat. Continue to cook until meat is cooked through, about 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove meat from heat and set aside.

RICE:

  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and stir in rice and the remaining green onions. Cook, stirring often for about 3 to 4 minutes, until rice is heated through. You can also add extra cilantro to your rice if you like cilantro rice!
  • Divide rice into 4 bowls, top each bowl evenly with ground meat mixture and then serve topped with fresh slaw. Garnish with extra cilantro or green onions, if desired.
