  • 2-3 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 2 tsp Ginger Grated
  • 0.5 tsp Smoked Paprika Adds warmth and smokiness

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, and honey. Whisk until smooth and set aside in the refrigerator to chill while you cook.
  • Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it into smaller pieces as it cooks. Cook until browned and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Lower the heat and mix in smoked paprika, onion powder, soy sauce, sriracha, chicken broth, honey, black pepper, and sea salt. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  • Sprinkle corn starch over the turkey mixture, stirring well. Simmer for about 1 minute until sauce thickens.
  • In serving bowls, add rice, top with savory turkey mixture, drizzle with Bang Bang sauce, and add toppings.

Notes

Let your assembled bowls sit for a few minutes before serving to meld flavors together beautifully.
