Ingredients
1 pound lean ground turkey
3 cups cooked rice, white or brown
1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 cups shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix

1/3 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons sriracha
1 tablespoon lime juice
Sesame seeds, optional for serving
Instructions
- Whisk mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and lime juice in a small bowl. Chill until serving.
- Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ground turkey and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it into small crumbles.
- Stir in garlic and ginger. Cook for 30 seconds, just until fragrant.
- Add soy sauce, honey, and rice vinegar. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the turkey is glossy and well seasoned.

Notes
Cook the rice and turkey ahead, chop the vegetables, and whisk the sauce up to 4 days in advance. For meal prep, keep sauce and cucumbers separate until serving.
Store assembled components in airtight containers for up to 4 days. Reheat only the rice and turkey, then add cold vegetables and sauce after warming.
