Spicy Ground Turkey Cabbage Stir Fry Meal Prep Recipes

SPICY ASIAN GROUND TURKEY WITH CABBAGE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large pan. When hot add ground turkey and stir fry it for 5 minutes. Add Hoisin sauce, hot chili sauce and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. Continue to stir fry until almost cooked through. (I use the pampered chef tool to break up the meat into small pieces).
• In a bowl, combine the scallions, half of the ginger, cabbage, half of the chili pepper, the garlic, the 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and the lime zest.
• Add vegetable bowl mixture to wok and continue to stir fry until cooked but still slightly crisp.
• While the turkey and vegetables cook, make the dipping sauce. In a bowl, combine the remaining ginger and chili pepper, the 1/3 cup of soy sauce, the lime juice, the sesame oil, the honey and a splash of water. Taste and adjust the seasoning; if it's too salty, add another drizzle of honey.
• Before serving the meat stir in the cilantro leaves.
• Garnish with extra cilantro leaves and serve with the spicy lime dipping sauce.
• Wrap in lettuce cups or serve over noodles or rice.

SWEET AND SPICY GROUND TURKEY STIR-FRY

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 NOODLES

Stir in parsley, coconut oil, pepper and salt. Serve with green onions, jalapeno, chili sauce and if desired, peanut sauce.
