Ingredients

  • ¼ cup black bean sauce
  • cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 ¼ pounds lean ground turkey
  • 2 ½ teaspoons canola oil divided
  • 2 cups small broccoli florets

  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon red chile flakes
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the black bean sauce, chicken broth and water. Set aside.

  • Add ginger and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add garlic and chile flakes, and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
