Instructions
Creating Ground Turkey Teriyaki Stir Fry is simple when you follow these easy steps:
1. Prep Ingredients: Start by chopping your vegetables into bite-sized pieces and mincing the garlic and ginger.
2. Cook Turkey: In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, add the ground turkey. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Garlic and Ginger: Once the turkey is cooked through, stir in the minced garlic and ginger. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Add Vegetables: Toss in the mixed vegetables and stir-fry until they are tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Make Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Mix well to combine.
6. Combine: Pour the sauce over the turkey and vegetables. Stir to coat everything evenly.
7. Thicken Sauce (Optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Add this to the pan, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
8. Serve: Remove from heat and serve the stir fry over cooked rice or quinoa.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for extra flavor and presentation.
