Ingredients
  

1 lb ground turkey

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup bell peppers, sliced (mix of red and yellow)

1 cup snap peas

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated

1/4 cup teriyaki sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Cooked white rice or amaranth quinoa (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep the Ingredients: Wash and chop all vegetables. Set aside.

    Cook the Turkey: In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Use a spatula to break it up into small pieces while it cooks.

      Add Aromatics: Once the turkey is cooked, add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

        Stir Fry Vegetables: Add the broccoli, bell peppers, and snap peas to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

          Add Sauces: Pour the teriyaki sauce and soy sauce over the turkey and vegetables, stirring to combine well. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, letting the sauce thicken slightly.

            Finish with Sesame Oil: Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry and mix well to coat everything.

              Serve: Remove from heat and serve the stir fry over cooked white rice or amaranth quinoa. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions for an extra pop of flavor and texture.
