Rice Directions
- Place 2 cups of water in the pan

Turkey Mix Directions
- Thinly slice the jalapeño pepper, keep the seeds. Reserve a few slices for garnish.
- Thinly slice the onion.
- Crush the garlic cloves (do not mince)
- In a small bowl, whisk the ginger, lemon grass and 2 tablespoons of Aminos together.
- Pour the mixture over the ground turkey, and work with a spoon to mix the Amino mixture into the turkey. Set aside.
- Heat one tablespoon of sesame oil over high heat.
- Cook the onion for about four minutes. Then add the garlic, jalapeños, and bell pepper, saving some raw jalapeño for garnish.
- Cook until veggies soften.
- Add the mushrooms.
- Cook until mushrooms soften.
- When the vegetables are nicely caramelized, add the raw turkey and cook several minutes until done.
- It is important to mix the turkey within the vegetables and to break up the meat into small pieces, so it cooks evenly.
- You should not need to add salt and pepper, since the Aminos have sodium.
