Ingredients
- 1 cup rice, uncooked
- 1 small onion
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 2 medium celery stalks
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 pound 7% fat ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon Mrs. Dash garlic and herb seasoning blend
- 8 ounces frozen broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1-1/2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
Preparation
- Prepare rice according to package instructions. Set frozen broccoli out to thaw. Dice the onion; slice celery; slice bell pepper into strips; mince garlic cloves, grate ginger and chop cilantro.
- Drizzle canola oil in a large non-stick pan and heat to medium high heat. Add turkey and brown. Halfway through cooking add the Mrs. Dash herb seasoning. Once turkey is cooked, remove from pan.
- In the same pan, add in onion, peppers and celery and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add in garlic and ginger and cook for 3 more minutes.
- Once vegetables are soft, add in frozen broccoli and stir to combine for a few more minutes.
- To make the sauce, combine broth, brown sugar, coconut aminos and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl.
- Add cooked turkey back into pan and stir in sauce to combine.
- Place 1/2 cup rice in a bowl and top with turkey and vegetable mixture. Add chopped cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
Helpful hints
- To thicken the sauce up more, add 1 teaspoon of corn starch.
- If Mrs. Dash seasoning is unavailable you can combine 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon onion powder and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Ginger paste can be substituted for fresh ginger.
- For a lower protein diet, if you have CKD and are not on dialysis, decrease the ground turkey to 1/2 pound. Protein is decreased to 16 grams.
