Turkey and Vegetable Stir-Fry
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) ground turkey
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, snap peas), sliced or chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: sesame seeds, sliced green onions
Instructions
- Preparation:
- In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
- Prepare all the vegetables by washing, peeling, and chopping/slicing as needed.
- Mince the garlic and ginger.
- Cooking:
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground turkey to the pan and break it up using a spatula. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through.
- Stir-Fry:
- Push the cooked turkey to one side of the pan. On the other side, add the mixed vegetables. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.
- Mix the turkey and vegetables together in the pan.
- Sauce:
- Pour the prepared sauce over the turkey and vegetables. Stir to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Seasoning:
- Taste the stir-fry and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Remember that the soy sauce already adds some saltiness.
- Serving:
- Once the stir-fry is well-cooked and the flavors are blended, remove from heat.
- Serve the turkey and vegetable stir-fry over steamed rice or noodles.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired.
