Ingredients

Noodles:

  • (3) 3.5-ounce packages of Korean Style Glass Noodles

Dan Dan Sauce:

  • ¼ cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons chili paste (add more if you like it spicy!)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups chicken bone broth
  • ½ cup tamari

Stir Fry:

  • 1 pound ground turkey or chicken
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch knob fresh ginger, minced or grated
  • 1 small onion, small diced
  • 1 colorful bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 small crown broccoli, cut into small florets

For Serving:

  • Fresh cilantro
  • Chopped peanuts
  • Sliced green onions

Instructions

Make the Noodles:

  • In a medium or large saucepan, cook noodles according to package directions. Stir frequently, using tongs or chopsticks to ensure the noodles don’t clump together.
  • Drain and rinse the noodles under cold water. Toss with a teaspoon of sesame oil and set aside until ready to use.

Make the Dan Dan Sauce:

  •  In a large liquid measuring cup, add the peanut butter, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, chili paste, cinnamon, bone broth, and tamari. Whisk to combine.

Make the Turkey and Veggies:

  • Begin by prepping all the veggies (mincing the garlic and ginger, dicing the onion and bell pepper, and cutting up the broccoli). This helps as the turkey takes very little time to cook.
  • Heat avocado oil to medium high heat in a large Dutch oven or stockpot. Add the ground turkey or chicken and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, breaking it up as it cooks.
  • Add the onions and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes then add the broccoli and peppers and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Turn the heat up a bit, whisk the Dan Dan sauce again, and add it to the turkey and veggies. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often. Turn the heat off and let the veggie mixture rest on the stove.
  • Add the cooked glass noodles, stirring to incorporate them into the mixture.
  • Serve with fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts, and sliced green onion. Enjoy!
