Instructions
Slice green onions and separate the greens from the whites. Chop garlic and ginger. Drain the waster chestnuts. Set aside. Whisk together coconut aminos, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, fish sauce and toasted sesame oil in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a high sided skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add in the whites of the green onions, garlic and ginger. Cook for about 2 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add ground pork to the skillet and use a spatula or wooden spoon to break it up as it cooks. Cook until the pork has been browned and cooked through and almost all of the moisture has evaporated from the pan. Add in coleslaw mixture, water chestnuts and the sauce and stir to combine. Cook over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables have just began to wilt. Be sure not to overcook the vegetables as you want to have a little bite in the dish.
Remove from heat and serve hot. Top with sesame seeds, sriracha and the remaining sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy!
