Ingredients
1 turkey breast
½ cup flour
1 tbsp garlic powder
½ tbsp smoked paprika
4 tbsps fish sauce
½ tbsp black pepper
½ tsp white pepper
- For the Sauce
1 ½ tbsps. Brown sugar
½ tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsps soy sauce
2 tbsps fresh diced garlic
4 tbsps fresh coriander
2 tbsps finely diced shallots
2 tbsps fresh green onion
1 sliced Thai chili for heat
1 tbsps oil
½ tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp Thai basil
3 tbsps sriracha
¼ cup turkey bone broth
Preparation
- FOR THE TURKEY
- Dice the turkey breast into bite size pieces and marinate for at least 15 min in fish sauce and white pepper.
- Mix the flour with garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Add into a big ziplock bag or container that you can shake in!
- Take the meat out of the marinade and add to the flour mixture and shake up until well coated.
- Deep fry in medium hot oil until golden…about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove from oil and set aside on paper towel to soak up excess oil.
- FOR THE SAUCE
- Heat up a pan on medium heat and add oil. Add chopped garlic – let it brown but not burn, it happens fast, so keep sauteeing.
- Crank the heat to medium heat and add the soy sauce, brown sugar, sriracha and mix all together.
- Add the turkey into the sauce and coat in sauce. Turn off the heat.
- Add the fresh herbs, green onion, and shallots last.
- Serve immediately while it’s still crunchy (it’s great over rice). Enjoy!
