Leftover Turkey Stir Fry

Ingredients

Sauce:

  • ¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce – or a gluten-free alternative
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes – ¼ teaspoon if you don’t like your food spicy

Stir Fry:

  • 1 pound cooked white turkey meat – skinless, cut into thin strips; about 3 cups
  • 1 pound frozen stir fry vegetables – or 1 pound of fresh, sturdy veggies cut into pieces
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh garlic – minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger root – minced

To Finish:

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • ¼ cup green onions – thinly sliced, green parts only

Instructions

  1. Whisk the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and red pepper flakes) in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a large, deep skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Add the frozen vegetables, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring often, until the veggies are defrosted and tender, about 5 minutes.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Give the sauce another stir, then add the turkey meat and sauce to the skillet.
  4. Cook, stirring, until everything is well-coated and the sauce thickens, for about 2 minutes.
  5. Transfer the stir fry to a serving platter. Drizzle it with the sesame oil and scatter the scallions on top. Serve immediately.
