Description
A quick and flavorful weeknight dinner featuring lean ground turkey in a sweet-savory teriyaki sauce with veggies, served over brown rice.
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. avocado oil or preferred cooking oil
- 1 pound Plainville Farms 94% lean ground turkey
- ½ tsp. kosher salt
- ½ tsp. garlic powder
- ¼ tsp. ground ginger
- 16 oz. package Heinen’s frozen organic peas & carrots
- ⅔ cup Two Brothers teriyaki sauce
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced green onions, optional
- 2 packages Heinen’s organic cooked brown rice, heated according to the package instructions
Instructions
1. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and brown, using a wooden spoon to break it into small pieces. Continue to sauté until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, garlic powder and ground ginger.
2. Fold in the frozen peas and carrots. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the teriyaki sauce and continue to cook until the vegetables are heated through, about 3-4 minutes more.
3. Remove from the heat, fold in the green onions (if using) and serve over warm brown rice.
Notes
Use low-sodium teriyaki sauce if you prefer less salt.
Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days and make a great meal prep option.
Feel free to substitute cauliflower rice for a lower-carb option.
