Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 bell peppers (preferably red and yellow), sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional but recommended)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Red pepper flakes (optional for extra heat)
- Fresh cilantro or green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Start by meticulously slicing the peppers and onion, mincing the garlic, and grating the ginger. Having all ingredients prepared beforehand ensures a smooth cooking process.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Once cooked through, remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining oil. Sauté the onions and peppers for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Return the cooked ground turkey to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Cook everything together for another 3-5 minutes to allow flavors to meld. For added spice, sprinkle red pepper flakes as desired.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
- For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheat in a skillet or microwave, adding a splash of water or soy sauce to retain moisture and flavor.
