Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 2 cups broccoli florets cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 cup peas fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 2 cups cooked rice white, brown, or jasmine
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil substitute with avocado oil for a higher smoke point
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish, optional

Method
 

Cooking
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the oil shimmers.
  2. Add 1 lb ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and no pink remains, about 6–8 minutes, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Stir in 2 cups broccoli florets and 1 cup peas. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the broccoli is bright and tender-crisp.
  4. If the pan looks dry, add a splash of water and cover briefly to steam.
  5. Pour in 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce and mix thoroughly to coat the meat and vegetables. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes.
  6. Serve the turkey and vegetable mixture over 2 cups cooked rice. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  7. Optionally, sprinkle sesame seeds on top before serving.
