Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the Ground Turkey Teriyaki Stir Fry. Rinse and chop your veggies, like broccoli and carrots, into bite-sized pieces for even cooking. Cook your rice according to the package instructions, so it’s fluffy and ready to serve. This prep makes the next steps swift and smooth, letting you focus on the flavorful cooking ahead.

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), garlic powder, and a cornstarch slurry made by mixing cornstarch and cold water. Ensure the sauce is smooth and lump-free, as this will thicken beautifully in the stir fry.

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and drizzle in some cooking oil. Once hot, add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until it's browned and cooked through.

With the turkey perfectly browned, add your chopped vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the veggies are bright and tender-crisp.

Reduce the heat to medium and pour the homemade teriyaki sauce over the turkey and vegetables. Stir everything together to combine thoroughly, allowing the sauce to envelop the stir fry ingredients. Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened to a sticky and glossy consistency.

Remove the skillet from heat and serve your Ground Turkey Teriyaki Stir Fry over the prepared rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for a fresh finish.
