Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice

  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice

  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Begin by cooking jasmine rice according to package instructions, so it is ready and warm when needed.

  4. Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until browned.
  5. Once the turkey is cooked through, add the soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
  6. Add the chopped red bell pepper, carrots, and broccoli to the skillet, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  7. Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in half of the bang bang sauce, ensuring everything is well coated.
  8. To serve, place a mound of cooked jasmine rice into individual bowls.
  9. Top the rice with the turkey and vegetable mixture.
  10. Drizzle the remaining bang bang sauce over each bowl.
  11. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can adjust the level of heat by varying the amount of sriracha sauce in the bang bang sauce.

  • Add or substitute other vegetables such as snap peas, spinach, or zucchini based on preference or seasonality.
  • To make this dish gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
