Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients, ensuring the veggies are washed and chopped accordingly.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ground turkey. Break it up with a wooden spoon and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Notes

For the best experience, pair with a refreshing cucumber and avocado salad or homemade spring rolls. Store leftovers separately from rice to maintain texture.
