Ingredients

Scale

For the Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 2 tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Brown sugar (or less as desired)
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (or less as desired)
  • 2 teaspoons Minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons Warm water

For the Stir-fry

  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup Diced onion
  • 2 tablespoons Minced garlic
  • 1 pound Ground Turkey
  • 1 cup Broccoli (finely chopped)
  • 2 Large carrots (peeled and grated)
  • 2 Green onions (diced, for garnish)

For Serving

  • 4 cups Cooked white or brown rice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, water, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, granulated sugar, minced garlic, ground ginger, cornstarch, and warm water until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Then add the finely chopped broccoli and grated carrots, cooking until tender but still vibrant, roughly 4-5 minutes.
  3. Brown the Turkey: Add ground turkey to the skillet with the vegetables. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is browned all over and cooked through, approximately 7-9 minutes.
  4. Combine Everything: Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce into the skillet with the turkey and vegetables. Stir well to coat all ingredients evenly and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and glazes the ingredients beautifully.
  5. Serve Over Rice: Spoon cooked white or brown rice into bowls. Top with the teriyaki turkey mixture and garnish with diced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful, wholesome meal.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to control salt levels in the dish.
  • Adjust sugar amounts in the sauce based on your preferred sweetness.
  • Feel free to substitute the vegetables with your favorites like bell peppers or snap peas.
  • For a gluten-free version, use tamari or a gluten-free soy sauce alternative.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
