Sesame Turkey Stir-Fry Recipe
I really like the rich taste of sesame oil in this Thai-inspired dish. If you don't have it, canola oil does the trick, too. To get a similar nuttiness, toss in a handful sliced almonds before serving. —Kelli Whiting, Fortville, Indiana TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min. YIELD:4 servings
Ingredients
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons sesame or canola oil

2 cups shredded cooked turkey breast
1 green onion, sliced
2 cups hot cooked brown rice
Thinly sliced serrano pepper and toasted sesame seeds, optional

2. Stir cornstarch mixture and add to pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until sauce is thickened. Add turkey; heat through. Stir in green onion. Serve with rice. If desired, top with serrano pepper and sesame seeds. Yield: 4 servings.
Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
