Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Peel, then halve carrot lengthwise and slice into 1/4-inch half-moons.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Thinly slice green onions.
- Remove outer layer of lemongrass, then halve lengthwise. Place on a cutting board, cut-side down. Using the back of a spoon or a pot, forcefully hit lemongrass to crush it, then chop very finely.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.)
- Transfer to a small bowl.
- To a medium bowl, add beef, lemongrass, garlic, soy sauce and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Season with pepper, then combine.
- Divide beef mixture into 8 (16) equal portions.
- Roll into balls, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick patties. (NOTE: Your mixture may look wet; this is normal. In step 4, you can carefully reshape patties when cooking.)
- Heat the same pan (from step 2) over medium.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then patties. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook in 2 batches if needed, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.)
- Cook for 4-5 min per side, until browned all over and cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together half the sweet chili sauce, vinegar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil.
- Add spring mix, carrots and green onions. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Remove the pan from heat, then add remaining sweet chili sauce. Gently toss to coat patties.
- Divide salad between bowls, then tear cilantro over top.
- Top with patties.
- Sprinkle peanuts over top.
If you've opted to get beef, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook turkey.**

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Flavors were well-received, with some finding it very good. Consider adding mint to enhance the taste.
- Suggestions: Use less sweet chili sauce for a less sweet taste; try adding bell peppers for more vegetables.
