1 lb Ground Turkey (Opt for extra-lean or substitute with ground chicken or beef)
3-4 cloves Garlic (Fresh minced garlic)
0.25 cup Honey (Can substitute with maple syrup)
0.25 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce (Use tamari for gluten-free)
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar (Apple cider vinegar works as a substitute)
1 tsp Sesame Oil (Adds a nutty depth; can omit for a lighter version)
optional Red Pepper Flakes (For extra heat; can use fresh chili or chili paste)
2 stalks Green Onions (Add freshness and crunch, chives are a good substitute)
1 tbsp Neutral Oil (Canola or Avocado; use for sautéing)

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add ground turkey and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic, red pepper flakes (if using), and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil; cook for another 3-4 minutes until sauce thickens.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.

For a lower sodium version, reduce soy sauce or use a low-sodium variety.
