Ingredients

Scale

For the Teriyaki Sauce

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 cup water, divided
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated or minced
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest

For the Stir Fry

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 3 cups broccoli florets, fresh or frozen
  • 1 small onion, small diced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. For the Teriyaki Sauce: Combine 3/4 cup water, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey, and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine.
  2. Bring to a low boil. Whisk 1/4 cup water and cornstarch together well until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Slowly stir in the cornstarch mixture (slurry) and allow to thicken. Remove from heat immediately and stir in the orange zest. Set aside until ready to add to stir fry.
