Ingredients
  

For the Bang Bang Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise You can use Greek yogurt for a lighter twist
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce Adjust more or less to your heat preference
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice Fresh is best, but bottled works in a pinch
For the Rice Bowl
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli Any mix of your favorites works
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cooking the jasmine rice according to package instructions; it should be fluffy and warm by the time you’re ready to serve.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, and lime juice. This is your bang bang sauce; mix it well and set it aside.
Cooking the Turkey and Veggies
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
  2. Crumble the ground turkey into the skillet, using a spatula to break it apart, and cook until it’s no longer pink and starts to brown nicely.
  3. Once the turkey is cooked through, stir in the soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Give it a good mix to incorporate those flavors.
  4. Toss in the chopped red bell pepper, carrots, and broccoli. Keep cooking for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
  5. Off the heat, mix in half of your bang bang sauce, ensuring every piece is coated.
Serving
  1. Scoop the warm jasmine rice into individual bowls. Layer the turkey and veggie mix over the top.
  2. Drizzle the remaining bang bang sauce over each bowl. Finish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for a touch of crunch.
  3. Serve immediately and enjoy!
