Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 medium head of green or savoy cabbage, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more
4 oil-packed anchovy fillets, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
4 teaspoons white miso
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 celery stalks, thinly sliced on a diagonal, plus 1/2 cup celery leaves
2 scallions, green parts only, thinly sliced on a diagonal
1 serrano chile, thinly sliced
1 cup cilantro leaves with tender stems
1 cup shredded cooked turkey meat
1/3 cup coarsely chopped salted, roasted skin-on peanuts
2 teaspoons black sesame seeds

Steps:

Toss cabbage and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Massage vigorously with your hands until cabbage begins to release water and soften, about 2 minutes (this will both season and tenderize the leaves). Drain; set aside.
Mix anchovies, lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, soy sauce, miso, and sugar in a large bowl; whisk in oil. Add cabbage, celery and celery leaves, scallions, chile, cilantro, and turkey meat to bowl and toss to combine; season with salt.
Serve salad topped with peanuts and sesame seeds.
