Turkey-Basil Fried Rice
Written by Lindsey VanTassel
Ingredients
2 cups brown rice
1-1.5 lbs ground turkey
3 Tbs soy sauce
4 Tbs oil
1 carrot shredded
6 green onions chopped
20 basil leaves chopped
8 oz. can pineapples
6 eggs
3 Tbs sweet chili sauce
Instructions
Put rice in a pot with 4 cups of water and bring to a boil. When water has reached boiling point, turn off stove top leaving your pot on the burner, cover with lid, and let sit for about 30 minutes for rice to cook. Put 2 Tbs of oil in a large saucepan or wok and cook ground turkey on medium high until cooked through. Place chopped green onions, basil leaves, and shredded carrots in with the meat and cook for another minute or two. Push meat mixture to the side, break your eggs into the pan, and scramble them in the space away from the meat. When the eggs are almost completely scrambled, add in the rice, pineapple (including the juice), soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, and the other 2 Tbs of oil. Mix gently until the eggs are fully integrated into the rice and meat. Serve hot and enjoy. Serves 5-6
