Instructions
*Using HALF of each ingredient as you cook. This enables even cooking
In a saucepan sauté, oil, garlic, fresh ginger paste (can also use peeled, minced fresh ginger…but the fresh ginger in the tube is super convenient. Can find it next to fresh herbs in the produce section), and half of the turkey over med-High heat. Once turkey is cooked through,
stir sauce mixture well (the corn starch may have settled to the bottom) and pour half of sauce mixture into saucepan with turkey. Cook 2 minutes, then add half of mushrooms, water chestnuts, green onions and zucchini. Stir fry for 2 minutes.
Simmer until mixture thickens in sauce. Pour into baking dish and keep warm while you repeat with remaining ingredients.
To serve: Top lettuce leaf with sticky rice followed by turkey/veggie mixture. ENJOY!
