Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 4–5 minutes until translucent and slightly golden. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for 60 seconds.
  2. Increase heat to high and add the ground turkey. Break the meat apart and cook until no longer pink, allowing it to sit for 2 minutes without stirring to develop browned edges.
  3. Lower the heat to medium. Sprinkle the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, salt, and pepper over the meat. Stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to bloom the spices.
  4. Pour in the coconut milk and stir to scrape up browned bits from the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer for 5–7 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  5. Stir in the frozen peas and lime juice. Cook for 2–3 minutes until peas are heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
