Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, sake, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and cornstarch until well combined. Set aside the luscious teriyaki elixir. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and let it brown undisturbed for 3-5 minutes, developing a rich, savory crust before breaking it apart with a spatula. Incorporate the diced onion and frozen stir-fry vegetables, cover, and steam for 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the vegetables to tenderize. (Cook time: 8 minutes)

03

Step

Uncover the skillet and introduce the teriyaki sauce. Stir continuously, allowing the sauce to thicken and glaze the turkey and vegetables to a delectable sheen, approximately 3 minutes. Serve the stir-fry over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice or chewy udon noodles, and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and fresh green onions for a final flourish of flavor and visual appeal. (Cook time: 3 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the ground turkey in half of the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference and what you have on hand. Bell peppers, broccoli florets, and snap peas work wonderfully.
If you don't have sake, dry sherry can be used as a substitute.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your liking, depending on how sweet you prefer your teriyaki sauce.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.

    I didn't have all the ingredients, but it still turned out great! I used honey instead of brown sugar and it worked perfectly.
