Perfect for busy weeknights, meal prep, or whenever you need a wholesome dish fast, this recipe hits every mark: rich protein, fresh crunchy vegetables, warm rice, and a creamy, sweet-and-spicy sauce that ties everything together seamlessly.

The star of the show is the signature Bang Bang sauce—a irresistible combination of creamy mayo, sweet chili sauce, and a kick of sriracha.

Prep & Cooking Details

  • Prep time: 5 minutes

  • Cook time: 10 minutes

  • Total time: 15 minutes

  • Servings: 2 portions

Ingredients

For the Bowls:

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey

  • 2 cups cooked white rice (or brown rice/cauliflower rice)

  • 1.5 cups fresh broccoli florets, chopped into small pieces

  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely diced

  • 1 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Bang Bang Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter swap)

  • 2 tbsp sweet Thai chili sauce

  • 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to taste)

  • 1 tsp lime juice

For Garnish:

  • 2 tbsp sliced green onions (scallions)

  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Whisk the Sauce:

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and lime juice until smooth and creamy. Set aside in the fridge so the flavors meld.

  2. Cook the Turkey & Veggies:

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until it starts to brown. Toss in the broccoli florets and diced red bell peppers. Season with soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger, salt, and pepper. Continue to sauté for another 3 to 4 minutes until the turkey is fully cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. Fry the Eggs:

    In a separate small non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the two eggs to your liking (a sunny-side-up or soft-boiled egg works best so the runny yolk mixes into the rice).

  4. Assemble the Bowls:

    Divide the warm cooked rice between two serving bowls. Top each bowl with a generous portion of the seasoned turkey and vegetable mixture. Place a cooked egg right in the center.

  5. Drizzle & Serve:

    Generously drizzle the prepared Bang Bang sauce over the top of both bowls. Sprinkle with fresh green onions and toasted sesame seeds, then serve immediately while hot.
