SWEET AND SPICY GROUND TURKEY STIR-FRY



Sweet and Spicy Ground Turkey Stir-Fry image

I put this together for a light meal when I noticed that we had too big a collection of half-bags of frozen vegetables and little containers of leftover cooked veggies. The kind and quantity of the vegetables can vary according to what you have -- you just need to end up with between 2 and 3 lbs. Some people prefer a more generous amount of thickened sauce on their stir-fry dishes. With a diabetic in the house, I skip that part but I've included the directions if you want it.

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb ground turkey
2 -3 garlic cloves
1 onion, cut into thin wedges
1 pinch coriander seed, crushed
1/3 cup soy sauce, divided (or to taste)
1 -2 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon sherry wine (optional)
1 pinch red pepper flakes (to taste)
oil
1/2 lb snap peas or 1/2 lb snow peas
1/2 lb broccoli floret
1/2 lb green beans
1 -2 cup spinach
1 -2 cup bok choy, chopped
1 -2 cup napa cabbage or 1 -2 cup Chinese cabbage, chopped
1 carrot, sliced
1 -2 zucchini or 1 -2 yellow squash, sliced
1/2 cup chicken stock (must be cold) (optional)
1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional)

Steps:

  • Brown ground turkey in a little oil over medium-high heat. Drain any excess grease leaving just enough to accomplish the stir-frying process.
  • Add garlic, onion, coriander, and a tbs of the soy sauce. Stir well.
  • Begin adding the vegetables starting with long-cooking veggies like carrots and broccoli (especially if broccoli is still frozen), and working towards the quick-cooking greens but not adding those just yet.
  • Just before adding the greens -- right after adding the beans or snap peas -- add the remaining soy sauce, the sugar, the sherry, and the red pepper flakes. Stir well so that sugar dissolves and pepper flakes are well distributed.
  • Add the greens and complete the cooking.
  • Make the optional sauce if desired by whisking the cornstarch into the chicken stock. Pour into pan just before the greens are done and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has simmered for about one minute.
  • Serve over rice, ramen noodle, or other preferred, Asian starch.

SPICY TURKEY STIR-FRY WITH CRISP GARLIC AND GINGER



Spicy Turkey Stir-Fry With Crisp Garlic and Ginger image

This quick-cooking stir-fry is packed with umami from fish sauce and soy sauce, and heat from both red-pepper flakes and fresh chile. Pungent and herbal, it's a terrific weeknight dish that's fast but never bland. The key here is to let the turkey get deeply brown, so don't move it around in the pan too much. Serve it over rice for a substantial meal, or a bed of crisp lettuce if you want something lighter.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or grapeseed
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (2-inch) knob ginger, cut into matchsticks
Fine sea salt
2 tablespoons coconut oil or more neutral oil
3 scallions, white and green parts separated, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more to taste
1 pound ground turkey, preferably dark meat (or use ground pork)
2 tablespoons lime juice, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon sugar or honey (optional)
Cooked sticky or white rice, for serving
2/3 cup cilantro leaves and tender stems, for serving
1/3 cup torn basil leaves (or use more cilantro), for serving
1 fresh bird's-eye or serrano chile, thinly sliced, for serving

Steps:

  • In a cold 12-inch skillet, combine oil, garlic and ginger. Place over medium heat until sizzling, then continue to cook, stirring frequently, until garlic and ginger are golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Add coconut oil to pan, then stir in scallion whites and cook until starting to brown, about 2 minutes. Stir in red-pepper flakes and cook for 1 minute.
  • Stir in turkey, raise heat to medium-high, and cook, breaking up meat with a spoon, until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes. Don't stir the meat too much, so it can turn deep brown.
  • Remove pan from heat and stir in lime juice, fish sauce and soy sauce. Taste and add more lime juice, red-pepper flakes, soy sauce and sugar or honey if you like.
  • Gently mix about two-thirds of the fried garlic and ginger into the turkey. Serve turkey over rice, topped with cilantro, basil, scallion greens and fresh chile, and garnished with remaining fried ginger and garlic.
