Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 3 bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 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
- Red pepper flakes (optional for spice)
Instructions
- Start by slicing your bell peppers and onion, and mincing the garlic. Having everything ready makes the cooking process smooth and quick.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the sliced peppers, onions, and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked turkey. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce if using, and sesame oil. Mix well to coat all ingredients evenly. For a spicy kick, sprinkle some red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- Remove from heat and serve hot. This turkey stir-fry pairs excellently with steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions or a drizzle of sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh, colorful peppers for the best flavor and visual appeal.
- Adjust the soy and oyster sauces to taste, especially if you prefer a saltier or milder dish.
- If you prefer a sweeter stir-fry, add a teaspoon of honey or brown sugar during the sauce addition.
