3 Cups Green Beans ends trimmed
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil or avocado oil
1 Bunch Scallions sliced (whites and greens)
6 Cloves Garlic minced
2 Tablespoons Grated Ginger or ginger paste
1 Pound Ground Turkey
3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
⅓ Cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
3 Tablespoons Sriracha
2 Limes juiced
1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
1 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

To make these bowls, start by cooking your jasmine rice according to the package instructions and set it aside. While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F and prep the green beans.
Trim the ends off the green beans and transfer them to a large baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil on top, toss to coat, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast the green beans for 12–15 minutes, tossing at the halfway point. If you want extra crispy edges, broil them for an additional 1–2 minutes at the end. Remove them from the oven and set aside.
While the green beans are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the sesame oil. Once the oil is warm, add the scallions, garlic, and ginger to the pan. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Then, add in the ground turkey and use a wooden spoon or spatula to break it down into small pieces. Cook the turkey through completely.
Once the turkey is cooked, add in the maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha, and lime juice. Stir to combine and continue to cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, until the sauce has slightly reduced and everything is well coated. Remove from heat.
To assemble the bowls, add a scoop of jasmine rice to the bottom of each bowl. Add the roasted green beans on one side and the ginger lime turkey on the other side. Drizzle any remaining sauce from the pan over the top. Then, garnish with the chopped roasted peanuts, additional green onions, and a drizzle of chili crisp. Serve and enjoy!
