Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces glass noodles (mung bean noodles or vermicelli noodles)
- 1 Tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 Tablespoons store-bought chili crisp (plus extra as garnish)
- 2–3 Tablespoons soy sauce or tamari sauce
- dash of lime zest (optional)
- 2 Tablespoons lime juice
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
- 1 pound ground turkey breast
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon everything seasoning (optional)
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 1/2 cups bean sprouts
- 1 medium carrot (peeled into ribbons and cut into 2” pieces)
- 3 Tablespoons roughly chopped fresh mint (optional)
- 3 Tablespoons roughly chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts (lightly chopped, save some)
- 4 green onions (thinly sliced, save some for garnish)
- lime juice (to taste, for serving)
Instructions
- Cook or soak noodles according to package directions. Drain noodles in a colander and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
- While the noodles cook, in a large nonstick skillet, add the oil, turkey, and salt. Break into small pieces with a wooden spoon and sauté for 8-10 minutes over medium-high heat until fully cooked through. Turn off the heat.
- In the now-empty pot (from the noodles earlier), heat the sesame oil and garlic, cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden. Turn off the heat and whisk in the remaining dressing ingredients. Let cool for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, chop all your veggies.
- In a very large bowl, add in the noodles, chopped veggies, cooked turkey, most of the peanuts, and most of the green onion (leaving some for garnish), and drizzle with the dressing. Toss together until well coated.
- Serve, sprinkle with green onions, a couple dollops of chili crisp, and enjoy!
Notes
- Adjust lime juice according to taste when serving.
- Optional ingredients like mint, cilantro, and everything seasoning can be added based on preference.
- Save some nuts and green onions for garnish.
