Description
A sophisticated yet approachable dish that combines ground turkey, jasmine rice, and a creamy Bang Bang Sauce for a delightful meal experience.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground turkey (preferably lean)
- 1 cup jasmine rice (rinsed and drained)
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (extra virgin)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust for heat)
- 1 teaspoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1/4 cup scallions (finely sliced)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (toasted)
- Fresh cilantro (roughly chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice and chicken broth. Bring to a gentle boil, then cover and reduce to low heat. Allow the rice to simmer for 15 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.
- In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and lime juice until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning for desired heat level.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground turkey and season with salt and pepper. Sauté until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Break it apart to achieve an even texture.
- Serve a generous scoop of jasmine rice topped with the savory ground turkey. Drizzle with Bang Bang Sauce, and garnish with scallions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro.
Notes
Toast sesame seeds to enhance flavor. Adjust Bang Bang Sauce to suit taste preferences.
