Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: red pepper flakes for spice
Instructions
- Start by slicing the bell peppers and onion, mincing the garlic, and grating the ginger. This prep work ensures a smooth cooking process.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a splash of oil and cook the ground turkey until browned and cooked through. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
- Once the turkey is cooked, push it to one side of the skillet. Add a little more oil if needed, then sauté the onions and bell peppers until tender but still crisp.
- Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the soy sauce and add sesame oil, mixing everything well to coat the ingredients evenly.
- Season with salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes to taste. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors. Serve hot over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
Notes
- Use lean ground turkey for a healthier option.
- Adjust the spice level with red pepper flakes or hot sauce.
- For added texture, sprinkle sesame seeds on top before serving.
- Prepare rice or noodles in advance to speed up dinner time.
