How To Make Cabbage and Ground Beef Chow Mein Casserole

  1. Prep & Cook Beef: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the ground beef, onion, and garlic with the vegetable oil until the meat is browned and the onions are tender. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add Cabbage & Noodles: Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet, cooking until it wilts and becomes tender. Stir in the cooked noodles, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger, and black pepper, ensuring everything is thoroughly combined and coated with the sauce.
  3. Combine & Bake: Fold in the shredded carrots, bell pepper, and bean sprouts if using, and pour in the broth, mixing well. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until everything is cooked through.
  4. Serve: Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.
