Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step

Add the ground turkey, chopped onion, and pressed garlic to the skillet. Cook, breaking up the turkey into crumbles, until the meat is no longer pink. (10-15 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in the drained garbanzo beans, diced tomatoes, curry powder, sweet chili sauce, and coconut milk. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer gently. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. (15 minutes)

06

Step

Season with salt, ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes to your liking. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spiciness. (1 minute)

For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground turkey with an equal amount of firm tofu, pressed and crumbled.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers, spinach, or zucchini for added nutrients and flavor.
To make it even richer, add a tablespoon of tomato paste along with the diced tomatoes.
Serve over basmati rice, quinoa, or with warm naan bread for a complete and satisfying meal.

    I love that I can customize the spice level. My family enjoys it mild, but I like to add a little extra kick for myself.
