Ingredients

Scale

For the turkey:

  • 1 lb ground turkey

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated

  • 1 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil

  • 3 tbsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

  • 1 tbsp fish sauce

  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tsp sriracha or chili garlic sauce (optional)

  • Juice of ½ lime

For the bowls:

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine or brown rice

  • 1 cup shredded carrots

  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • 1 cucumber, thinly sliced or chopped

  • ¼ cup chopped peanuts or cashews

  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro or mint, chopped

  • Extra lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  2. Add garlic and ginger, sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through — about 7–8 minutes.

  4. Stir in soy sauce, fish sauce, honey, sriracha, and lime juice. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until everything is well combined.

  5. To assemble bowls: Add a scoop of rice to each container or bowl. Top with ground turkey, then layer on carrots, bell peppers, cucumber, and chopped herbs.

  6. Sprinkle with nuts and add a lime wedge for squeezing.

Notes
