Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground turkey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced thinly
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice or noodles (optional, for serving)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and grated ginger. Mix well and set aside.
In another small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the cooked turkey to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrots, red bell pepper slices, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked turkey to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.
Pour the soy sauce mixture over the turkey and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly in the sauce.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish.
Serve hot over cooked jasmine rice or noodles, if desired.
