Ingredients
Method
Prepare Teriyaki Sauce
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the coconut aminos, water, coconut sugar, rice vinegar, ground ginger, and garlic. Heat until the sauce begins to simmer.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water until fully dissolved. Slowly add this mixture to the saucepan and simmer until thickened, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cook Turkey and Vegetables
- Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook for another 4-5 minutes until it starts turning brown.
- Add broccoli and shredded carrots; stir to combine. Cook until the vegetables are soft and turkey is no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
- Pour in the sauce and stir until everything is evenly coated. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with sliced green onion if desired. Serve warm over vegetables, in lettuce wraps, or with rice.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the ground turkey for 30 minutes in the sauce before cooking. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, snap peas, or water chestnuts for more crunch. For a spicier dish, add red pepper flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
