    Ingredients

    For the stir fry

    • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
    • 1 pound Ground Turkey
    • 2 large Carrots sliced ¼" thick
    • 1 head Broccoli cut into florets
    • 4 cloves Garlic minced
    • ½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
    • Green Onions for garnish
    • Sesame Seeds for garnish

    For the teriyaki sauce

    • 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
    • 1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar
    • ¼ Cup Gluten Free Soy Sauce or Tamari
    • ¼ Cup Warm Water
    • 1 Tablespoon Corn Starch

    Instructions

    • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is warm, add the raw ground turkey and cook about 5 minutes, until the meat is browned. Crumble ground turkey into small pieces with a wooden spoon as it browns.
      1 Tablespoon Olive Oil, 1 pound Ground Turkey
    • Add the diced vegetables, minced garlic and ground ginger to the pan. Stir fry the vegetables until tender-crisp, about 5 more minutes.
      2 large Carrots, 1 head Broccoli, 4 cloves Garlic, ½ teaspoon Ground Ginger
    • In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, warm water and cornstarch until the sugar dissolves and everything is well combined. There should be no lumps of cornstarch remaining.
      2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar, 1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar, ¼ Cup Gluten Free Soy Sauce, ¼ Cup Warm Water, 1 Tablespoon Corn Starch
    • Turn the heat down to medium. Pour teriyaki sauce into the skillet and stir well to fully cover the ground meat and veggies. Allow the stir fry to simmer for a few minutes over medium heat, until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
    • Serve the turkey teryiaki over rice or in a lettuce wrap and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
