Ingredients
  

Teriyaki Sauce

  • ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons of brown sugar or adjust according to your preferred level of sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar adjust to taste
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons warm water to dissolve cornstarch

Ground Turkey and Vegetables

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup broccoli finely chopped
  • 2 large carrots peeled and grated
  • 2 green onions diced (for garnish)
  • 4 cups cooked white or brown rice

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, water, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, granulated sugar, garlic, and ground ginger.
  • Thicken the Sauce: In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of warm water until dissolved. Slowly pour this mixture into the simmering sauce, stirring constantly until thickened.
  • Cook the Turkey and Vegetables: In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until fully browned.
  • Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped broccoli and grated carrots. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
  • Combine with Sauce: Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the turkey and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly.
  • Assemble Bowls: Divide cooked rice among four bowls. Top each bowl with the teriyaki turkey and vegetable mixture. Garnish with diced green onions.
  • Serve: Enjoy warm, and adjust sweetness or saltiness to taste by adjusting the sugar or soy sauce in the teriyaki sauce.
