Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup sugar snap peas
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

Instructions
- Heat the canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and sugar snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are bright and slightly tender.

- In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, toasted sesame oil, cornstarch, and chicken broth until blended. Pour this mixture over the turkey and vegetables.
- Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and coats the stir-fry.
- Serve over jasmine rice or farro, garnished with toasted sesame seeds and fresh cilantro.
Notes
- For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of chili paste to the sauce.
- Swap ground turkey for ground pork or tofu for a vegetarian option.
