→ Sauce
01 -
2 Tbsp water
02 -
1 tsp chili garlic sauce
03 -
¼ cup soy sauce

1 garlic clove, grated
05 -
2 Tbsp brown sugar
06 -

07 -
1 tsp sesame oil
08 -
1 Tbsp cornstarch
→ Main Ingredients
09 -
1 lb ground turkey
10 -
1 small onion, diced
11 -
1 Tbsp cooking oil
12 -
1 large zucchini (about ¾ lb), sliced into rounds and quartered
# Instructions:
01 -
Stir the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, grated garlic, grated ginger, cornstarch, water, and chili garlic sauce in a bowl. Set it aside after mixing.
02 -
Chop up the onion into small pieces. Slice the zucchini into rounds, then chop those rounds into bite-sized quarters.
03 -
Heat a skillet over medium heat with the cooking oil. Toss in the chopped onion and zucchini when it’s hot, and sauté them for around 4–5 minutes. Cook until the onion looks clear and the zucchini gets some golden color. Take the veggies out and set them aside.
04 -
Add ground turkey into the same skillet. Break it up into pieces as it cooks, and let it brown completely.
05 -
Put the veggies you set aside back into the skillet with the browned turkey. Stir the sauce you mixed earlier and pour it over everything before stirring.
06 -
Let the mixture simmer for about 2 minutes. This’ll help the sauce thicken up nicely and coat everything.
07 -
Take it off the heat and dish it out while it’s hot. Add any toppings you like—green onion, sesame seeds, red pepper flakes, or serve it with rice if that’s your thing. Enjoy!

Feel free to swap out zucchini with broccoli or green beans if you’d like.
