Ingredients you need for the Garlic Butter Ground Turkey with Cauliflower Skillet
1 lb (450g) ground turkey (or ground chicken)1/2 head cauliflower, sliced into florets2 tablespoonsvegetable oil1 tablespoon lemon juice3 tablespoons butter2 tablespoons minced garlic1 tablespoon onion powder1/4 cup (60ml) low-sodiumsoy sauce (or coconut amino, for Paleo)2 tablespoonshot sauce (we used Sriracha)2 teaspoonssesame oilFresh chopped cilantro (or parsley)1/4 cup (60ml) waterRed chili pepper flakesLemon slices, for garnish
Directions
1. To make theGarlic Butter Turkey with Cauliflower: Heat a large skillet over medium-low with one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Saute the pre-cooked cauliflower florets in the skillet, under slightly golden brown – make sure not to burn cauliflower. Deglaze with lemon juice, add some fresh cilantro, salt, and pepper to your taste, and toss to coat well. Remove to a shallow plate.
2. In the same skillet (rinse the skillet if cauliflower has burnt), melt butter with one tablespoon oil and cook ground turkey, breaking the meat apart with a wooden spoon. When the turkey meat is no longer pink, add garlic, the onion powder and give a quick stir. Add soy sauce, water,and hot sauce and continue cooking, stirring regularly, for a couple of minutes.
3. Push ground turkey aside and return the cauliflower to the skillet. Reheat quickly and coat cauliflower in the sauce. Add a drizzle of sesame oil, sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro, and red chili pepper flakes, and garnish with lemon slices. Serve the Garlic Butter Turkey with Cauliflowerimmediately – enjoy!
Notes:
- To cook cauliflower quicker: Throw the cauliflower florets in a bowl and add 1/4 cup (60ml) water, cover, and microwave for 4 minutes before sauteing.
- If you want more sauce: remove the cooked ground turkey from the pan and add butter, garlic, and onion powder. Deglaze with soy sauce and hot sauce, and add a few drops of water if necessary – You can use the same quantities as the ingredients list. Transfer to a small bowl and serve along with cooked ground turkey and cauliflower.
- Make sure to use low-sodium soy sauce and don’t add salt to the recipe. The dish is already salty enough!

What are the benefits of cooking with ground turkey?
Cooking with ground turkey has many benefits, providing a lean yet tasty alternative to traditional ground beef. Ground turkey is lower in fat when comparing lean ground turkey to lean ground beef. So for the same weight, you get more protein from ground turkey.
Ground turkey is also versatile and can make a wide array of recipes. You can make turkey meatballs, chili, tacos, burgers, and more. Like ground beef, ground turkey also takes on the flavor of whatever spices you add, making it an excellent ingredient for any dish.
