ingredients
- 1 cup medium grain rice uncooked
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 small bunch green onions sliced thin
- 2 cloves garlic minced or crushed
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon crushed ginger
- 1 pound washed and trimmed green beans or Chinese long beans if available

steps
- Start rice cooking in lightly salted water.
- When rice is about 15 minutes from done, heat large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sesame oil, and sauté green onions and garlic for about 2 minutes. Stir in ground turkey and sauté 3-5 minutes, until meat is mostly cooked. Crumble meat as much as possible.
- Stir in chili garlic sauce, hoisin sauce, and ginger. Add green beans and soy sauce, and stir to coat. Continue cooking over high heat for 7-9 minutes longer, stirring frequently, until beans are slightly tender.
- Stir in rice vinegar, and cook one minute longer. Serve over cooked rice.
notes
- not a particularly saucy dish, but still flavorful
