Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 1 large Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 3 pieces Green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 1 whole Lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and cooked through.
Remove the cooked turkey from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5 minutes or until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked turkey to the skillet with the vegetables.
Pour in the low-sodium soy sauce and add the red chili flakes. Stir everything to combine, cooking for another 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Sprinkle the stir-fry with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, tossing well to combine.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the finished dish for an extra burst of flavor.
