Teriyaki Turkey Rice Bowl
A delicious and easy-to-make rice bowl featuring ground turkey, teriyaki sauce, and fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup soy sauce low sodium preferred
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
- 2 cup cooked white or brown rice
- 1 cup steamed broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 2 green onions sliced
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds optional
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
- In a small separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until dissolved. Add this slurry to the soy sauce mixture and stir to combine.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked turkey in the skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir frequently until the sauce thickens and coats the turkey, about 2-3 minutes.
- Prepare your rice bowls by dividing the cooked rice into serving bowls.
- Top the rice with the teriyaki turkey, steamed broccoli florets, and shredded carrots.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
You can substitute ground chicken for ground turkey if desired. Adjust the sweetness of the sauce by adding more or less honey.
