Teriyaki Turkey Skillet Recipe

By

This Teriyaki turkey skillet is a deliciously flavorful way to use up that pound of ground turkey in your fridge or freezer.

Mini Chef and I eat a lot of ground turkey. It’s versatile, tastes great and is pretty readily available. But you can only make a taco salad or turkey burgers so many times before it starts to get old. So I find myself experimenting often to see what new dishes I can come up with.

An overhead view of this Teriyaki Turkey Skillet Recipe shows bits of turkey, carrots and green beans all tossed with a delicious teriyaki sauce.

If you like teriyaki chicken, you’ll enjoy this dish too. It’s got veggies and just the right balance of sweet and salty to give good flavor.

If you want to turn this into a rice bowl, just cook your rice separately and then top a serving of rice with a serving of this teriyaki turkey. Instant Teriyaki Turkey Rice Bowls!

HOW TO COOK GROUND TURKEY

Ground turkey is pink when raw, and well browned with finished cooking. It’s impossible to really use a meat thermometer with ground turkey, so you have to go off the look of it. Stir it frequently while cooking, breaking up any chunks as you go, so you end up with a nice scramble. Add your seasonings at about the half way point of cooking. On average, it can take about 10-15 minutes to fully cook a pound of ground turkey, depending on your stove and the pan used. Some will cook faster, some slower. But that’s about the average cooking time.

Years ago, I had a bad fall and injured my tailbone. It was one of the WORST pains I’d ever experienced. All the nerves surrounding my spine and lower back felt like they were on FIRE…Yoouuch!!! I was traveling for work at the time, and had to be pumped full of morphine just to get on the plane back home. I was bedridden for 3 weeks and miserable. I desperately tried every natural remedy I knew about to bring down the inflammation… and some things worked better than others. One of the most effective herbal supplements I took was a daily turmeric supplement . Thankfully, after several more weeks of turmeric supplements, acupuncture, and taking it easy, my tailbone had a full recovery. This was the first time I experienced for myself how powerful turmeric is.

To show you how remarkable this spice...
