Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 1 pound Asparagus
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and trim the asparagus by removing the tough ends, then cut into 2-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and chicken broth until well combined. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground turkey, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until fully browned, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula. Remove the turkey from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet, then add minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the asparagus to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender. If desired, sprinkle in red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
Return the cooked turkey to the skillet and toss with the asparagus.
Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet and stir everything together to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
