Teriyaki turkey is one of my family’s favorites! The sweet and savory richness of the sauce really compliments the mild flavor of the ground turkey. Plus it’s loaded with veggies, which means my kids are eating them! You can pair this with steamed rice chow mein noodles, or wrapped in a tortilla or Lettuce Wrap.

Ground Turkey Teriyaki Rice Bowls

Ground turkey recipes are always a winner in our house, like Turkey, Kale and Rice SoupTurkey Taco Stuffed Shells and Spicy Turkey Meatloaf. But these Teriyaki Turkey Rice Bowls always top the list of favorites.

This ground turkey is juicy and the teriyaki sauce is sweet and flavorful. Add in all the wonderful veggies and you’ve got a perfectly complete meal that makes great leftovers.

Why We Love This Recipe

  • It’s a quick and easy, a healthy alternative to ground beef, and an easy substitution in tons of recipes like chili and spaghetti sauce.
  • We include lots of veggies and dice them up small so it’s very kid friendly and a great way to get kids to actually enjoy eating their vegetables.
  • You can easily customize this recipe to include your favorite veggies or add a different base like rice or noodles.

How to Make Teriyaki Turkey Rice Bowls

  1. Cook the ground turkey. After cooking the meat with some onions and garlic, grate few carrots and chop some broccoli very fine, and toss them in with the meat. This gave the illusion that there weren’t very many vegetables in there, but they couldn’t avoid what they couldn’t see! *Note – if you are serving this as a rice bowl, you’ll want to start cooking the rice before you start cooking the meat.
  2. Make the teriyaki sauce. The teriyaki sauce is made from scratch and is incredibly easy. Some readers have commented on the amount of sugar in the sauce, and you can see in the recipe notes that you can reduce to your liking. Teriyaki sauce is typically sweet on it’s own, but you can adjust the levels based on your needs. It will still taste great!
  3. Assemble the rice bowls. The teriyaki sauce is combined with the meat and veggies and simmered for a few minutes to let the flavors blend and get all happy. Then scoop it on top of white or brown rice, noodles, into lettuce cups or even flour tortillas for some Asian-Mexican fusion!

How to Cook Ground Turkey

Ground turkey is a light, bright pink color when it’s raw or uncooked. As it cooks the color will change from pink to light brown.

Seasoning is important, since it has a very mild flavor that takes on whatever flavors you add. It’s delicious with just a little garlic, onion and salt added but you can also add it to chili, spaghetti, tacos and more by changing the seasoning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use ground beef instead of turkey?

Yes, you absolutely can! Ground turkey can be easily swapped for ground beef, pork or chicken. You will want to make sure to drain it really well since ground beef lets out a lot of liquid, but it will work just as well as the ground turkey.

Can I cut back the amount of sugar?

Yes. I wrote this recipe to have a sticky sweet teriyaki sauce, but some people have said they prefer it a little less sweet. Feel free to cut back as much as you like. As you are cooking the sauce, give it a quick taste – you can always add more sugar if you want it sweeter.

How to Serve

Sprinkle some sliced green onions and sesame seeds on top before serving. It’s a pretty garnish and adds a little flavor, too.

My kids love to eat their rice bowl with chopsticks. If you don’t have any, you can find them here, or try these adorable training chopsticks for kids.

Recipe Variations

Feel free to customize this recipe to fit your own personal tastes. Use leftover veggies and sauté or steam them before adding them to the turkey and sauce.

Some other veggie options:

  • Bell peppers
  • Snow peas
  • Water chestnuts
  • Bok choy
  • Bean sprouts
  • Zucchini
  • Corn
  • Cauliflower
  • Water chestnuts

Storage Tips

How to Store Leftovers

  • Refrigerating leftovers: This dish will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge if properly stored in an airtight container. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove.
  • To freeze, allow to cool completely, then pour into a freezer bag or airtight container. Freeze for up to 6 months. Thaw in the fridge and reheat as described above. Freeze rice or noodles separately from the meat.

Recipe Tips

  • Ground turkey recipes are the tastiest when the meat is seasoned properly.
  • Add some heat to this dish with some Sriracha or red pepper flakes.
  • Not fans  of rice? Use noodles instead. You can even use spaghetti noodles to mimic a lo mein and toss in some cabbage to saute it with.
  • Feel free to cut the amount of sugar in this recipe. It won’t affect the flavor too much but it will swing more towards the savory side.

Instructions
 

Teriyaki Sauce

  • In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and warm water until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, gently whisk soy sauce, water, red wine vinegar, sugars, minced garlic and ground ginger until sugars are completely dissolved.
  • Slowly whisk in cornstarch mixture and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.

Ground Turkey

  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until softened. If you notice the onions beginning to scorch, immediately turn down the heat.
  • Stir in minced garlic. Add ground turkey and break apart with a spatula. Cook, stirring occasionally, until turkey is cooked about halfway through; 4-5 minutes. Add grated carrots and chopped broccoli and continue to cook until turkey is no longer pink and vegetables are soft; 5-6 minutes.
  • Pour teriyaki sauce over the turkey and vegetables and stir. Simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Divide cooked rice into bowls then top with the teriyaki turkey. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Teriyaki Sauce is generally sweet. However, feel free to cut back on the amount of sugar in the sauce. 1 tablespoon of each would suffice if you prefer a more savory flavor. 
  • The nutritional information is based on serving this teriyaki turkey over white rice. Use brown rice or just less rice to reduce calories and carbs.
  • Feel free to customize this recipe with your favorite vegetables.
  • A note about SERVING SIZE: A serving is approximately ¾ cup of rice and one cup of the meat/veggies.
  • The serving sizes are approximate and will vary depending on a variety of factors, like how much you cook your veggies down and what size your cuts of vegetables are. As a meal, this recipe will make 4-6 servings.

    This was sooo delicious! Other than using a gluten free “soy” sauce and adding a bit more of the veggies, I followed it as is. I had nothing left. My son went back for 3rds. Thank you. This is a keeper.

        1. Adrienne - Yellow Bliss Road says:

          Yes, that should work fine.

  16. Summer says:

  17. Talea says:

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Awesome feedback Talea, thanks for stopping by.

  18. Troy Ratcliffe says:

    I love this recipe I didn’t have broccoli so I added bell peppers. I made this 3 times already in 2 weeks. Very good health meal full of protein. Thanks this is my go to.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Troy! Thanks for stopping by.

  19. Paula says:

    Why wouldn’t you use rice vinegar instead of red wine vinegar. Also you do not need to cook the sauce separately you can just put it all together and then it will cook in the pan with the turkey. Just a suggestion.

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Let me know when you’ve posted your recipe online so I can come check it out.

  20. Inge Larsh says:

  21. Heather says:

    So easy and delish perfect for a weeknight dinner! Love that it’s healthy too! Was hit with the family tonight and
    only change I made was chopped a little jarred organic sliced sushi ginger as I was out of ground ginger and reduced the garlic a little. Served over jasmine rice.

    Teen approved! “Mom this def needs to go into the rotation!”

    Thank you for the Mom win!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Heather! Mom for the WIN!

  22. Fosterbeach says:

    Loved this recipe! Easy and tasty. I was running low on soy sauce so I had to cut the teriakyi sauce in half and it was still delicious! Added some peanuts for a bit of crunch. I’ll be making this again.

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Fosterbeach! Awesome feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  23. Marlo says:

  24. Katie says:

    We love this recipe! It’s easy and delicious and makes great leftovers too. I usually use ground beef since that’s what we usually have on hand and I always add more carrots and broccoli because I like them. Thanks for the recipe!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Katie! Thanks for stopping by.

  25. Ashleigh Cox says:

    So good! We absolutely loved this recipe!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Ashleigh!

  26. Paula says:

    Can you use organic lean ground beef instead of turkey?

      Sure, any ground meat will work.

  27. Donna says:

    This stir fry has such a delicious flavour and satisfies all of your taste buds. A favourite we enjoy again and again!

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Donna! Thanks for stopping by.

  28. Michelle Bandy says:

    LOVE this recipe! The teriyaki sauce was amazing, although I didn’t have ginger. I also switched my veggies for zucchini and bell peppers! Did the rice in the instant pot, turkey in a cast iron and everything was just… excellent. Thank you for this!!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Michelle! Thanks for stopping by.

  29. Anonymous says:

    Made this a while ago and it turned out amazing. The younger people in my family aren’t a huge fan of ground turkey (we make tacos with it the majority of the time) but they loved this recipe. I will definitely make it again in the future!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by.

  30. Jul Francis says:

    Fantastic dish! Family loved it and I even doubled it. I’d cut back on the sugar but only to 2 1/2 TBS of the sugars.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Jul! Thanks for stopping by.

  31. Annalise says:

    This recipe is a weekly staple in our house for me and my husband. I have even started to use the sauce recipe in chicken stir fry and it is perfection! Such a yummy, easy recipe that is nutritious and filling

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Annalise! Thanks for stopping by.

  32. JL says:

    I made this last night and it was very good. The sweetness of the sugar doesn’t come out until you start cooking the sauce, so start with 1 tablespoon each of the white and brown sugar and taste as you go. Added eggplant and zucchini to give it more variety. Would keep this as a staple!

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback JL! Thanks for stopping by.

  33. Erin says:

    Excellent recipe! Will add to my regular rotation. Blanched broccoli beforehand, halved sugar for sauce (as I looked at the reviews), added cabbage and put on top of brown rice. Will do on top of vermicelli noodles next time. Delicious 😋 recipe! Hubby super happy with it too! Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Erin! Awesome feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  34. Alyssa says:

    Delish, I replaced the ground turkey with chicken breast that I cut into strips. Definitely a new favorite, my family said it tasted like I went to a Chinese restaurant and got it lol. Thank you so much for this recipe, love it!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Alyssa! Thanks for stopping by.

  35. Mackenzie Gottman says:

    This was a fan favorite! Love the sauce and will use for my next meals.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Mackenzie.

  36. Jess G says:

    So good! I wanted to make something different with my turkey meat and it was a major hit for my kiddos. I diced additional veggies and even my 2 year old couldn’t get enough!

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Jess! Thanks for stopping by.

  37. Carrie says:

    I was surprised by how delicious these were! I had to supplement based on what I had on hand (I was out of brown sugar) and added a splash of chili oil for some heat. So good! They will definitely be in the weekly rotation.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Awesome feedback Carrie! Thanks for stopping by.

  38. Kara says:

    Absolutely delish! Used coconut aminos and coconut sugar in addition to arrowroot for the cornstarch. All healthier swaps and couldn’t have tasted better 🙂

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Kara! Thanks for stopping by.

  39. Danielle says:

  41. Laura says:

    This recipe was delicious. I have never made homemade teriyaki sauce and it turned out perfect. I will be adding this to the dinner rotation for sure. Thank you for sharing!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Laura! Thanks for stopping by.

  42. Linda says:

    Very tasty recipe. I used a mixture of vegetables and we had them with lettuce wraps to keep it low carb. The flavor is great and I think next time I will add alittle spice to it. It will be on rotation!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Linda! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  44. qui says:

    I have made this recipe now 4x and my whole family loves it. It’s a great, quick, weeknight dinner and I love the amount of veggies in it. I also add in shelled edamame.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback qui! Thanks for stopping by.

  45. Amanda says:

    Looking forward to trying this! Do you think it’d easily adapt to making in crockpot? With two little kids I’m always trying to use my slow cooker 🙂

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      You can I suppose, but it only takes 20 minutes and you’d still have to cook the meat separately.

  46. Nicole says:

    I don’t normally comment; but this is freaking amazing!!!!!!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Nicole.

  47. Claudia says:

    So easy to make & the whole family loved it!!

    1. Kristin says:

  48. Allison says:

    Delicious! I used 1 tbsp of white sugar and 1 tbsp of brown sugar and it was perfect! Thank you for the recipe! I will definitely be making this again soon!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Allison! Awesome feedback, thanks for stopping by

  49. Elena says:

    Oh my dear sweet jeebus, this was FABULOUS. It honestly reminded me of the beef bowls I use to get when I lived in Japan. That teriyaki sauce is the perfect thickness and coats every grain of rice. And the flavor is next level. We added kimchi on top, and the acidity cut through the richness of the sauce perfectly. Thank you so much for posting this. It’s on permanent meal prep rotation for us now.

    1. Kristin says:

      That’s awesome Elena! Fantastic feedback, thanks for stopping by to share.

  50. Marilyn says:

    This was the best teriyaki sauce recipe I have tried so far! It was so good! My daughter gave it a A+++++!

  51. Alba says:

    This recipe was SOOOO GOOD! The whole family loved it! Thank you.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Alba! Thanks for stopping by.

  52. Nichole says:

    This was excellent!!! I only changed the broccoli to mushrooms. Amazing!!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Nichole.

  53. Summer says:

    This was DELICIOUS! My 8 year old adventurous eating daughter also really liked it! It wasn’t overly sweet or saucy either. Added extra broccoli and matchstick carrots right at the very end so they stayed crispy… and they were! So so good.

    1. Kristin says:

      Fantastic feedback Summer! Thanks for stopping by.

  54. Josh says:

    Delicious and Simple reciepe I love it soo much

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Josh.

  55. Terry says:

    This is one fantastic meal! I substituted the broccoli with asparagus and it still tasty 😋😋

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Terry! Love the feedback.

  56. Kim says:

    Thanks, tried more by design. Looking for a turkey and rice dish I decided to make this. I like Teriyaki sauce. One day I will get a chance to make, maybe.

  57. Terri says:

    Made this for the first time this evening. Not bad. I added chopped red bell pepper to the carrots and broccoli for more color and cut the sugars to 1T each. Tastes like something I would get from the frozen food section and microwave. Not sure I’ll make it again.

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Terri for stopping by and for sharing your feedback.

  58. Jaci O says:

    This was SO GOOD. My best friend sent it to me and told me to make it immediately. She was right! Hubby asked me to double it next time so that we have more leftovers 😍 I ended up using thawed frozen veggies that we had in the freezer as opposed to the broccoli, but everything else was the same. Absolutely amazing recipe!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for the awesome feedback Jaci O.

  59. Mary says:

    Family favorite!!!! Everyone will eat it! Absolutely love this recipe! I add other veggies and the kids don’t really notice them.

      Awesome Mary! Thanks for stopping by.

  60. Emilie Mann says:

    This was sooo yummy and will become a staple in our house for sure! We did one cup broccoli and one cup cut green beans for veggies. We also did 1.5 tbls of each sugar- perfect sweetness!!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Awesome feedback Emilie, thanks for stopping by.

  61. Janice says:

    Delicious!! I followed recipe except for subbing 1tbl rice vinegar + 1 tbl Mirin for red wine vinegar cuz its what I had. It came out so good & I ate so much. Thank you for this great recipe!!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Janice! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  62. Jeanie says:

    Delicious! I only used half the sugar. I added hot pepper flakes.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Jeanie.

  63. Susie Goebel says:

    My husband has to be on low sodium diet. I would love to make this however it says this contains 994mg sodium. Is this with using the sodium soy sauce?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Yes, it is. Soy sauce is basically salt. Even though the bottle says “less sodium” or “low sodium” and about 40% less sodium than regular, it still has quite a bit.

  64. Deborah says:

    This was delicious!!!!! I added a little less sugar as suggested in your notes. Thanks for sharing!

      You are so welcome Deborah! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

      1. Mary says:

        Just started WW and thought this recipe sounded good and on the healthier side. I only made changes that I felt were beneficial for me, and I loved it. First time using ground turkey. I’ll definitely be making this again.

  66. Nicole says:

    Such a delicious and easy meal!! Can you freeze this?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Yes you can freeze it. The meat should be fine, however the veggies may experience a slight change in texture upon thawing.

  67. Linda Cameron says:

    This has become a favorite in our house. It’s so flavorful and super easy to make.

  68. Marissa says:

    My entire family loved this recipe, plus the little cousins, which included a 2, 4, and 5yr old! Saving this one to add into our rotation – I substituted snap peas for the broccoli and carrots.

  69. Tracey says:

    We make this regularly and it’s so delicious. We try to avoid a lot of sugar, so I use 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of monk fruit. I also added chopped cauliflower because I had some on hand. This recipe is always a hit!

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Tracey! Thanks for stopping by.

  70. Elaine says:

        Love this recipe! In my monthly rotation- I usually add chopped zucchini, shitake mushrooms and shallot in place of onion!. I like served in lettuce wraps or over modifies and my daughter and husband love with rice. You can really make it with whatever veggies you have etc.

  73. Sharon says:

    Can I use ground chicken instead of ground turkey? Or would it change the flavor too much. I’m excited to try this. Thank you.

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Ground turkey and chicken have similar flavors and could easily be swapped. Enjoy!

  74. Debbie says:

    Made this at the recommendation of a friend – so yummy! Cut sugar in half and I think it’s perfect. Added some zucchini also just because I had it. Will definitely make again!

    1. Kristin says:

      Fantastic feedback Debbie! Thanks for stopping by.

  75. HJ says:

    Loved this recipe! I only had apple cider vinegar available and it still turned out great! A little tangy, but delicious

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for your feedback HJ.

  76. Christina Clyburn says:

    Loved this! I added broccoli, shiitake mushrooms, zucchini and substituted the sugars for coconut sugar. It was delish!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Christina!

  77. Meagan says:

    Can’t wait to try! Can I use rice vinegar instead of red wine?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Yes, of course. Enjoy!

  78. Mandy says:

    It was amazing! I loved it! I added double the veggies. Thanks for an amazing recipe

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Mandy! Thanks for stopping by to share.

  79. Hannah says:

    If using store bought teriyaki sauce how much should be used?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      You’ll add it at the end after all your veggies and the turkey, so you can use however much you like.

  80. Krista Johnson-Pientka says:

    This has been in our dinner rotation for a couple years now so I had to leave a comment. It’s so easy, healthy and delicious! Will make for years to come.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for the awesome feedback Krista!

  81. Shar says:

    Great recipe, even my picky 3 y/o loved it. I used a frozen “riced” broccoli/cauliflower/carrot mix and it turned out great and no one could even tell there was veggies in it 😂

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Shar.

  82. Sharon Moyer says:

    This was such an easy meal and more importantly my children ate it without one complaint. This was super yummy and definitely going to be my go to meal when I’m tired and short on time. Thanks!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Sharon! Thanks for stopping by.

  83. Debbie says:

    This recipe is better than take out and healthier. Truly 5 Stars you won’t be disappointed. Yummy.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome comment Debbie! Thanks for stopping by.

  84. Kristie says:

    you think this would this freeze well?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      It will – the veggies might get a little mushy when they defrost and you should freeze the rice separately but it will otherwise do well.

  85. Maggie says:

    Great recipe! Delicious flavor and super easy. Thank you for sharing it and thanks to those that made comments. I used monk fruit instead of sugar, but that was the only change. A couple additions I made to the onions, garlic, carrots and broccoli was adding some green cabbage and water chestnuts like some recommended. Lastly, I had it on palmini rice for lower carbs.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Maggie! Thank you so much for stopping by.

      1. Cristy says:

        This has been a family staple for years now! It’s quick, easy, and most importantly flavorful. When my daughters went off to college they asked that I send them the recipe so they could make it to impress their friends. I have found that I need to double the sauce recipe because I add a lot more veggies to it than the recipe calls for, and my girls like to spoon it on their rice.

  86. Heather says:

    Yum! Made this last night and I loved it! I added half the amount of brown and white sugar and it was perfectly balanced for my taste. I don’t like broccoli so added red peppers and water chestnuts instead. Otherwise kept the recipe exactly as is. It was delicious! I’ll make this again.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Awesome feedback Heather, thanks for stopping by.

  87. Emily says:

    Delicious! I am definitely going to add this into our meal rotation. Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Emily! and you are so welcome.

  88. Ana says:

    Great recipe! In my husbands words, “This is delicious.”

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Ana.

  89. Liz says:

    Absolutely delicious! I cut out the white sugar after reading the reviews. Husband and I ate ours over cauliflower rice. Kids thought it was great. Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Liz! Thanks for stopping by.

  90. CJ says:

    This was very good! Will definitely make it again!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you CJ! Love the feedback.

  91. Pete says:

    Instant family favorite!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Pete.

  92. Katherine says:

    Way too salty. No need for white sugar either. 2tbsp of brown sugar is more than enough! I think chicken might make it more flavourful. I’ll try it again!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you for your feedback Katherine!

  93. Lisa says:

    This recipe doesn’t miss. The first attempt I followed the recipe exactly, but used 3 T of brown sugar & no white sugar at all. It was delicious. Tonight I substituted with carrots, brussel sprouts and red pepper that I put through the food processor. At the end, I hit it with a bit of sriracha to balance the sweet. I love that we’re getting all that veg in this dish.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Lisa! Thanks for stopping by.

  94. Kirsten says:

    Mmmmm this was so delicious! I followed the suggestion to use half the sugar and was glad I did as the sweetness was perfect with a total of 2 tbsp of sugars. I finely chopped some cauliflower as well and mixed it all into rice. Will be on my regular rotation. Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Kirsten! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  95. Jan says:

    Found the recipe somewhat tasteless. Don’t think I will make again

  96. Jennifer says:

    Is the nutrition facts including the calories of the rice?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      As stated in the notes of the recipe, yes the nutritional information includes the turkey and sauce served over rice.

      1. Mckayla says:

        For the nutrition facts.. what’s the portion size for those facts?

        1. Kristin Maxwell says:

          From the recipe notes – A note about SERVING SIZE: A serving is approximately ¾ cup of rice and one cup of the meat/veggies.

  97. Sharron says:

    This is one of my go-to recipes! I always seem to have the ingredients in the house, and I love knowing exactly what’s in my teriyaki sauce. Ever since I had to go gluten free, finding Asian foods I can eat safely has been hard, so this is an easy and delicious alternative! I sometimes add some Sriracha and/or red pepper flakes to add a hint of heat.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Sharron! Thanks for stopping by to share.

  98. Denise says:

    I have a question about the nutritional values—is that including the rice?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Yes, it includes the rice.

      1. J M says:

        SO good. Easy to do GF, nothing too complicated, and I almost always have everything on hand. Thanks for sharing this!

  99. Heidi says:

    Delicious! I made it tonight with ground chicken. I also food processed the carrots and broccoli because my partner won’t eat them otherwise! Topped with Sriracha and green onions. Everyone loved it! I loved how easy and fresh it was!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by to share your feedback Heidi.

      1. Sarah says:

        I always come back to this recipe! It’s one of my favorites. It freezes and reheats super well, so I try to make a big batch every time. I also usually double the veggies 🙂 Yum! I’m doing this in a butter lettuce wrap tonight which I’m excited about.

        1. Kristin says:

          Nice! Thanks for stopping by Sarah.

  100. Brittney Hughes says:

    Made tonight and me, husband, and baby (no sauce) LOVED!! I did 3 tbsp light brown sugar and added a little siracha to the sauce and it is excellent! Also topped with avocado! Definitely adding to the dinner ideas list!

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Brittney! Thanks for stopping by.

  101. Rachael G says:

    Delish! Used 3 tbs of brown sugar and 1 tbs of granulated sugar. We loved it!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Rachael.

  102. Susanne Murray says:

    I love this recipe. It’ easy, versatile and always delicious. I never get tired of eating this.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Susanne! Thanks for stopping by.

  103. Casey says:

    This was delicious and a hit with the whole family. Each of my kids (11,10,8) asked for seconds. We will be adding this to the rotation! Thank you!!

    1. Kristin says:

      Your so welcome Casey! Thanks for stopping by.

  104. Esperanza says:

    I made this for my bf and I tonight & let me just say this is a very good recipe. At first I hadn’t added enough brown sugar, but I added more and it came out delicious. I meal prepped it in containers for lunch, thank you so much for this recipe 🙂

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Esperanza! Thank you for stopping by to share.

  105. Melissa says:

    I just found your site tonight when looking for ground turkey recipes, and I’m so glad I did! I didn’t have carrots so I used diced red and yellow bell peppers, then served it over brown rice for my husband and riced cauliflower for me. The only other change I made was to use only 2 tbsp of coconut sugar for the sweetener. It was perfect and definitely will make again!

    1. Kristin says:

      Love your feedback Melissa! Thank you so much for stopping by.

  106. Ogie says:

    Delicious! I added mushrooms, snap peas, and edamame and omitted the carrots. I used 3 tablespoons of brown sugar and no white sugar. Served over brown rice; it was amazing.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Ogie.

  107. Tammie says:

    Haven’t made this yet but I make rice bowls as meal prep for work. With Thanksgiving around the corner, I’m going to try this using chopped up leftover turkey. I would think if you sautéed the vegetables then toss with the turkey to warm them add the sauce it should work similar. Thanks for a great idea!

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      I think that would be great!

  108. Perry says:

    This was so easy to make a super delicious. My partner is a bit picky about what he eats and just loved it. I had some basmati brown rice that I cooked in a pressure cooker with chicken broth. The combination was perfect. This will now be a “go-to” in my recipe repertoire. Thanks so much.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Perry! Awesome feedback! Thanks for stopping by.

  109. Lucy Wood says:

    Oh my gosh, so good!!! The teriyaki sauce is addictive – I cut the sugar by half and it was delicious. I used thinly sliced brussel sprouts instead of broccoli and added wide lo mein noodles at the end. So good, thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Lucy! Thanks for stopping by to share.

  110. Jess says:

    Can you say comfort food?? This dish was absolutely fantastic. The substitutions I made was using coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and of course I didn’t have broccoli so I used cauliflower and holy smokes! I’ve never doubled a recipe I’ve never made before but something told me to do it on this one. So glad I did!

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Jess! Thanks for taking the time to share.

  111. Sharon Kast says:

    This is a bomb recipe! So tasty 😋 A family favorite!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you for your feedback Sharon!

  112. Susan C. says:

    This is definitely my go to, I double the recipe and family has as leftovers for a few days, it doesn’t last long! Thank you. Excellent instructions too!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Susan! Love the feedback, thanks for sharing.

  113. Kelli Novak says:

    This recipe was FANTASTIC! My 3 1/2 year old (that is super picky) LOVED it and so did my 17-month-old. I would love to feature this recipe on my parenting E-Newsletter! <3 Thanks! – Kelli @ohbabyihadnoidea

  114. Nora says:

    Great recipe. Super easy. Tasty. 5 Stars for the recipe but 2 stars for this webpage which is very cumbersome, really slowing down my computer. Thanks for the recipe.

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you for sharing your feedback Nora.

  115. Bob Z says:

    Followed the recipe except used San-J Teriyaki sauce to taste and it turned out great!

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Bob! Thanks for stopping by.

  116. Michelle says:

    Loved it! It was a huge hit with all 4 of my boys! I did add heat with red pepper flakes & a few dashes of hot sauce! I substituted a bag of broccoli slaw (contains cabbage, carrots & broccoli) & a bag of snow peas! So yummy!!! Thank you!

  117. Pam says:

    Very salty.

  118. Susan Tobocman says:

    Too much sauce and too salty for my taste, however I like the ingredients – may need to adjust for next time!

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Recipes are definitely subjective. You can use as much or as little soy sauce as you like, or even reduce the sauce a bit. I hope you give it another try with those alterations!

  119. Jill says:

    This is absolutely delicious. I followed the instructions exactly and then added a few tablespoons of crushed cashews for some crunch. This would be amazing as a lettuce wrap as well!. Thank you for sharing!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Jill! Awesome feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  120. JulieA…Momma says:

    So flip’n Delicious! This is a winner with my fam! Thank you for giving me another recipe to put in the weekly rotation!!!!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome JulieA! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  121. Linda says:

    Made this last Night, Used zucchini, sriracha and wrapped in lettuce leaves. Delish! Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Linda! Thanks for stopping.

  122. Kaitlin R. says:

    This recipe is simple and tasty! It also reheats good! I did add the red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little kick and it was perfect! Can’t wait to try other recipes from your site!

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Kaitlin! Thank you so much for stopping by.

  123. Mayra LB says:

    How much Teriyaki sauce already bought would be?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Hi Mayra, if you’re using bottled sauce, you can use as much or as little as you want. I’d say probably 1/4-1/2 cup would suffice.

  124. Erin says:

    We all loved this recipe…do you think I could use frozen broccoli?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Sure, just steam it first.

  125. Kim says:

    Delish! I substituted cauliflower instead of broccoli. Definitely will make again.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Love the feedback Kim! Thanks for stopping by.

  126. Yvette says:

    This was a delicious and flavorful dish. Definitely keeping it in my meal rotation, and sharing the site with family and friends. Thank you.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Yvette! Thank you so much for stopping by and for sharing the love.

  127. Pamela Farr says:

    My IBS kiddo FLIPPED over this. I made turkey meatballs to give a bit more protein and roasted them in the oven (so I wouldn’t mess up stove – I’m lazy) with some different spices, made your sauce, and he ate it at dinner for 3 days running!

    1. Kristin says:

      That’s awesome Pamela! Love your feedback! Thank you so much for stopping by.

  128. Rhonda Nickolas says:

    One of the best ground Turkey recipes I’ve ever made, or ate. Thanks!!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Rhonda! Thanks for stopping by.

  129. Katie Foote says:

    About how may cups would you say 2 grated carrots would be? I am looking forward to making this but want to buy the pre grated carrots cause I’m lazy, lol!

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      I would say add about 1/2 cup of the pre grated carrots. You can always add more – this is a very forgiving recipe.

  130. Melissa says:

    Made this for the first time tonight and my husband and I loved it. Pretty easy to follow along. I will definitely be adding to our meal planning rotation. Thank you 🙂

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Melissa! Love the feedback. Thanks for stopping by.

  131. Shayna says:

    Hi there! I’m wondering if there is any substitutions you suggest for red wine vinegar? Thank you! Excited to try.

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Hi, you could use rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

      1. Shayna says:

        Made this tonight for my family! It was so delicious!! Added red pepper to the veggie mixture. My 18 month old had two helpings, toddler and husband approved!!

        1. Kristin says:

          That’s awesome Shayna! Love the comment, thanks for stopping by.

  132. Megan says:

    I just made it for the first time, and I am definitely going to keep this recipe in my book!! I didn’t have ground ginger but did have fresh ginger (oddly enough lol) and it was delicious!

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Megan! Thanks for stopping by.

  133. Renee says:

    This was very good. I’d like a little more spice/heat. What would you suggest adding?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Red chile flakes or some sriracha.

  134. Lynn says:

    This is so delicious!!! Second time making it.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Lynn.

  135. Darlene Scott says:

    This is delicious and so easy to make! The second time I made it I added a 1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper for a bit more colour and about an extra 1/2 cup broccoli as I needed to use up what I had. So good! Thank you for sharing this recipe.

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Darlene! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  136. Debbie says:

    Very good we served it in lettuce cups, the flavour is fantastic.

    Thanks for the idea

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Debbie! Thanks for stopping by.

  137. Maureen C says:

    Fantastic recipe! My entire family loved it, including my six-year-old and picky three-year-old. We’ll be making this again. Thank you!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Maureen! Thanks for stopping by.

  138. Carla Weiss says:

    Delicious!!!! My husband and I both loved this meal

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping by Carla.

  139. Sarah says:

    This was SO good, with a few additions. In the sauce, fresh grated ginger instead of powdered, and I added 1 T each of sesame oil and oyster sauce. In the stir fry itself, I used shredded cabbage and carrot (bagged coleslaw) instead of just the carrot. This turned out so good! Especially with scallions and sriracha on top. 🙂

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Sarah! Thanks for stopping by.

  140. LB says:

    Super easy to make when you don’t want to fire up the oven. I subed the broccoli for peas. Turkey is usually half the price of ground beef in my area, so I appreciate alternatives.
    P.S. I enjoy this website, but the pop up ads are so out of control. Makes for a bad user experience

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Hi, Thanks for your nice comments about the food. Glad you enjoyed it. As for the ads, I only have two pop ups allowed on my site, one is the video that really isn’t a pop up and just moves to the bottom of the screen when you pass it on the post (and there’s an “x” so you can close it). And there is a pop up for my email list that only shows the first time you visit the site. Any other pop ups I would check your internet provider, because I hate them too and wouldn’t allow them on my site. Ads are the way we recipe creators make a living – I do my best to make sure they aren’t too intrusive.

  141. Jenna says:

    This was absolutely delicious! My 6 and 4 year old helped me make it and they kept on commenting “oh my gosh it smells so good!”
    Everything was simple and straightforward, dinner was on the table in 25 min. I have been trying to incorporate more ground turkey into the routine and this was the best way to do it. This will be a repeat offender in our household for sure. Thank you so much!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Jenna! Absolutely love the feedback! Thanks for stopping by.

  142. Cindy says:

    Would this be considered “healthy”?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      I guess that depends on your definition of “healthy.” As written, and with the serving sizes used, it’s approximately 380 calories per serving.

  143. Triciia says:

    My husband loved it! It was a hit!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for stopping Triciia.

  144. Mikayla says:

    I keep coming back to this teriyaki recipe over & over. I actually use it for many different things. So good!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Love the feedback Mikayla, thanks for stopping.

  145. Nadine says:

    Excellent and easy recipe. My husband actually liked it and he never likes anything I make.

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Nadine! Love the feedback, thanks for stopping by.

      1. Bethany says:

        Made this for lunches this week and it is amazing. I made two changes. The first was to use Lakanto for the sweeteners because that’s what I had on hand. The second was to use a rice and cauliflower rice mixture to cut the carbs a bit. Delicious! Will be adding this to our rotation.

        1. Kristin says:

          Nice! Thanks for stopping by Bethany.

  146. Christina says:

    Do you think this would work with ground turkey sausage?

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Sausage will be greasier but you could give it a try.

  147. Susan says:

    Oh my, this was fantastic! I did not have the ingredients for the sauce so used a teriyaki that I had in the fridge and even then it was so good. I cannot wait to try it with the homemade teriyaki. Another thing that I absolutely loved was how quickly this can be made.

    I am going to share this, and your website, with my daughter. Thank you!!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Susan! Thank for passing the love around. (love the feedback)

  148. Shelley says:

    This was so good! I do think next time I will cut back on the sugar just a bit, but we all loved it! I’m always trying to find recipes with ground turkey that aren’t bland and this does not disappoint! I added water chestnuts and a red pepper. Served it with some mini wontons. Delicious dinner!

  149. Susan says:

    This was delicious! My husband and I loved it. I cut the carrots in 1/8 slices and cooked them with the onion. I left the broccoli chunky, tossing it in near the end just after I added the sauce. I did add some cumin to the ground turkey while it was cooking and also pinch of cayenne pepper. I’m definitely making this again and may try it with finely sliced chicken. I did not alter the sauce and found it excellent as is, not too sweet at all. Thanks!!

    1. Emily says:

      This was delicious! I added pickled peppers with Serrano peppers and garlic that I had canned, Sriracha sauce, jalapeños diced, and fresh tomatoes with everything else for the ground turkey, and I added fish sauce and honey to the sauce with fresh ginger! I used jasmine rice! The best thing about cooking is there is no rules to flavor! So yummy!

  150. Megan Brewer says:

    This was so good. It surprised me as a budget friendly recipe. I used shredded squash instead of broccoli and added some Asian staples I had on hand such as sweet chili sauce and toasted sesame oil. Thanks for the inspiration!

    1. Kristin says:

      You are so welcome Megan! Thanks for stopping by. (Love the feedback)

  151. Tai says:

    This was awesome! I googled ground turkey with rice and this recipe popped up! Very tasty. I added green peas to it and less sugar and it was amazingly good! Thanks for sharing! This will definitely become a favorite in my house!

    1. Kristin says:

      Thank you Tai! Love your feedback, thanks for stopping by.

  152. Deb says:

    Made this recipe and, despite the addition of Sriracha, I found it to be quite bland. I toned down the amount of sweet to half of what was suggested. I used an orange bell pepper and baby bellas along with the carrots. Maybe it needs to be served with/over something other than rice. Might try it again, not too sure.

    1. Kristin Maxwell says:

      Hi Deb, Anytime you cut down or alter the ingredients it’s going to change the taste. Sorry you didn’t like it – I guess everyone’s taste is different.

  153. Dawn Nearman says:

    This was so amazing. The flavors were a perfect blend with the ginger and garlic. I had a pound of ground Turkey and usually make a meat loaf, googled this and it’s now my go to for ground turkey. Loved Loved Loved it.

    1. Kristin says:

      Love the feedback Dawn! Thanks for stopping by.

  154. Jeanne says:

    First time I made it was too salty due to the fact I didn’t use low sodium soy sauce.
    Tonight I did use low sodium and it was perfect. Hubby ate two servings!

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Love the feedback Jeanne! Thanks for stopping by.

  155. Anne says:

    Delicious! Didn’t follow recipe exactly but it doesn’t matter. The star of the recipe is the teriyaki sauce. Yum! This could go with so many dishes. I added some cole slaw shredded cabbage mix and it was terrific. This will be on repeat

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Love the feedback Anne! Thanks for stopping by.

  156. Sheri Anthony says:

    Made this recipe for dinner tonight. It was a huge hit. The homemade teriyaki sauce was delicious.

    1. Kristin says:

      Nice! Thanks for the awesome feedback Sheri.

  157. Jessica says:

    I am making this for probably the 10th or 11th time today. This is the perfect meal prep for me, and everyone at work always says it smells so good. I love how easy it is to make, and it’s so filling! Great way to get my veggies in, and I always add a red bell pepper to it.

    1. Kristin says:

      Awesome feedback Jessica! Thanks for stopping by.

  158. Norine says:

    Super recipe and a home run in our house! Added red pepper, mushrooms and zucchini and cut back a bit on the sugar. Thanks for sharing.

    Eating this as I leave a comment. I normally don’t leave comments, but I have to say this is the best Teriyaki ground turkey recipe I’ve ever tried and I’ve tried lot! Followed the recipe exactly as written, adding a little less sugar and throwing in a red pepper that needed to be used. Not only is the finished recipe beautiful to look at but also beautiful to eat! I love that it feels healthy and that it’s so versatile, thanks for a great recipe!
