Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Before starting, add 1 cup (2 cups) water to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • Once water is boiling, add rice, stock powder and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Stir to combine.
  • Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.

  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions and peppers.
  • Cook 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp. 
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer veggies to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Cook turkey

  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the pan, then turkey. 
  • Cook 4-5 min, breaking up meat into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
