– 1 lb ground turkey

Making Ground Turkey Teriyaki Stir Fry can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prep the Vegetables: Wash and chop the mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
2. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey or brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set it aside.
3. Cook the Turkey: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula.
4. Add Vegetables: Once the turkey is cooked, add the mixed stir-fry vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
5. Pour the Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over the turkey and vegetables. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
6. Simmer: Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2-3 minutes, enabling the sauce to thicken slightly.
7. Garnish: Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
8. Serve: Serve the stir fry hot, either on its own or over a bed of steamed rice or noodles.
With precise steps, you’ll have a stunning stir fry that will impress your family and friends!
