1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat if needed.

2. Push the beef to one side. Add sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to the empty side of the skillet. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, then mix with the beef.

3. Stir in soy sauce or coconut aminos and your chosen sweetener. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.

4. Add the cabbage and stir to combine. Cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring often, until the cabbage softens but still has some crunch.

5. Sprinkle in red pepper flakes. Remove from heat and top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot.
