Prep the sauce by mixing all of the ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.
Preheat a large skillet (I used a 17-inch cast iron) to medium heat with avocado oil.
Prep the onion, cabbage, and bell pepper.
Add the onion and sauté for about 8-10 minutes until browned and slightly caramelized.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 20-30 seconds.
Add another splash of oil if needed, then add the cabbage, bell pepper, and 1/4 tsp salt and stir into the dish, cook 8-10 minutes until softened and greatly reduced.
Add the ground chicken and another 1/4 tsp salt and cook about 8 minutes until cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
Turn heat down to low, then add the sauce and stir together. Let it cook for a few minutes. Taste test and add salt as desired.
Plate, top with sesame seeds, sliced green onion, and cilantro, and enjoy!
