A quick and delicious stir fry featuring turkey, broccoli, and a homemade teriyaki sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ c soy sauce
  • 3 T brown sugar
  • 1 c water, divided
  • 2 T honey
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger (grated or minced)

  • 1 T orange zest
  • 1 lb Turkey
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 3 c broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)

  1. Combine 3/4 cup water, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, honey, and brown sugar in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Stir to combine.
