Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 1 medium White onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 2 Carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 stalks Celery, diced
- 2 cups Baby spinach
- 6 cups Reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 0.5 cup Rice (jasmine or basmati preferred)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until fully browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat, and transfer the turkey to the crockpot.
Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the crockpot.
Stir in the diced carrots, diced celery, and baby spinach.
Pour the chicken broth into the crockpot, followed by soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Rinse the rice under cold water to remove excess starch and add it to the crockpot.
Cover the crockpot with a lid and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the rice is tender and the vegetables are fully cooked.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional soy sauce or salt as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your comforting Crockpot Asian Turkey and Rice Soup!
