Ground Turkey

How We Do It

Korean Turkey

Ingredients

  • 1 lbs Ground Turkey

  • 4 Garlic Cloves, (grated or minced)

  • 1/4 Cup Honey

  • 1/4 Cup Soy Sauce

  • 2 tsp Sesame Oil

  • 1/4 tsp Ground Ginger

  • 1/4 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper

  • Sesame Seeds for garnish

This is my go-to asian protein dish. It's really simple to make and there is always a lot of flavor. I've swapped the ground turkey for ground beef and ground chicken with great results. I'd say go lighter on the crushed red pepper flakes if you're not into spicy. If you're ok with spicy I recommend trying the recipe as is and adjusting after your first go-round.

Instructions

Step 1

I recommend prepping your ingredients. This includes preparing your garlic.


Step 2

In a large skillet, over medium heat brown the ground turkey 8-10 minutes until fully cooked.


Step 3

While turkey is cooking, make the sauce. Add garlic, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper flakes, and black pepper to a bowl. Mix together.


Step 4

Once turkey is fully cooked add the sauce to the skillet. Cook 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens/absorbs into the turkey.


Step 5

Serve the turkey over the rice/riced veggies or whatever you like. Garnish with sesame seeds and if you're fancy green onion.
