A fast, healthy, and flavorful weeknight dinner with lean turkey, fresh veggies, and a simple homemade teriyaki sauce.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 cup jasmine rice, uncooked
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for GF)
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Cook rice according to package instructions. Set aside.
  2. Whisk soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking into crumbles (5–6 mins).
  4. Pour sauce over turkey; stir in cornstarch (if using). Simmer 2–3 mins until slightly thickened.
  5. Steam broccoli for 3–4 mins until bright green and tender-crisp.
  6. Divide rice into bowls. Top with turkey, broccoli, avocado, carrots, and sesame seeds.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, bake turkey crumbles on a sheet pan at 400°F for 10 minutes before adding sauce.
  • Swap rice for cauliflower rice to keep it low-carb.
  • Make ahead: Cook turkey and sauce separately; refrigerate up to 3 days.
