Instructions
For the Vegetables
- Wash and cut your green pepper into a large dice. Cut your sweet onion into a large dice as well.
- Cut your mushrooms into quarters if they are small or more if they are larger mushrooms.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil over medium high heat.
- Add the onion first and cook for 1-2 minutes then add in the green peppers and garlic. Cook until soft and remove from the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
For the Turkey
- Heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil over medium high heat. Add in the ground turkey.
- When the turkey is half way browned, add in the chopped mushrooms and cook together until the turkey has fully browned.
- When the turkey has finished, add in 1 Tbsp of honey, 3 Tbsp soy sauce, 2 tsp sriracha, 1 tsp sesame oil, and ½ tsp ground ginger. Stir to incorporate and season with salt and pepper to taste.
For the Rice
- Cook enough rice to have 2 ½ cups of cooked rice. 1 cup of uncooked rice will yield around 3 cups of cooked rice.
Plating
- This recipe makes 5 servings. You do not need to cook the shredded carrots because they will cook when reheated in the microwave. Add ½ cup of rice and carrots to each container and divide the remaining ingredients equally.
