Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium)

  • Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

  3. Stir in diced onion, minced garlic, and ginger; cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add bell pepper, broccoli, and snap peas; stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes.
  6. Pour the sauce over the stir fry and toss until everything is evenly coated and heated through, about 2 minutes.
  7. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce and ensure sauces are gluten-free.
  • Serve over rice, noodles, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
  • Adjust vegetables based on what you have on hand.
