Instructions
Creating Ground Turkey (Korean-Style) is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, and rice vinegar. Whisk until smooth.
2. Marinate the Turkey: In a separate bowl, combine the ground turkey with the marinade. Ensure the turkey is well-coated. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
3. Cook the Turkey: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
4. Season: Taste the cooked turkey and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Stir in the chopped green onions for added freshness.
5. Serve: Remove from heat and transfer the turkey to a serving dish. Garnish with sesame seeds or additional green onions if desired.
