Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 large bell peppers (any color), sliced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh green onions and sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Start by slicing the bell peppers and dicing the onion. Mince the garlic and set all aside for easy access during cooking.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Push the cooked turkey to one side of the skillet. In the same pan, add the diced onion, garlic, and sliced peppers. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Mix the turkey with the vegetables. Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and sesame oil. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring everything is well-coated with the sauce.
- Serve the turkey pepper stir-fry over rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet or wok for even cooking.
- Feel free to customize with other vegetables like broccoli, snap peas, or zucchini.
- Adjust soy sauce to taste if you prefer a saltier or milder dish.
- Make ahead by prepping all ingredients in advance to streamline cooking.
