Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 lb green beans, trimmed and chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
For the Sauce:
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tsp chili garlic sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat one tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add green beans and season with a little salt and pepper.
- Sauté the green beans for about 6 minutes until they start to get a little char and are tender, but still crisp. We don’t want floppy green beans! Transfer the green beans to a bowl and set aside.
- Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the hot skillet and add the chopped onion. Sauté the onion until fragrant and translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds, being careful not to burn.
- Add the ground turkey and brown until crumbled and turkey is fully cooked.
- While the ground turkey is cooking in the skillet, whisk together soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger and seasonings.
- Add the cooked green beans back into the pan and pour in the sauce, mixing well, making sure to completely coat the ground turkey and green beans. Let everything simmer for 2 to 3 more minutes, until sauce has thickened. Serve over hot rice and enjoy!
