Make the sauce by adding the coconut aminos, chili garlic sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey (if using), minced garlic and fresh ginger to a small bowl. Mix together and then whisk in the arrowroot starch
Set aside until ready to use
Heat 1 tsp of the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium/high heat
Add in the ground turkey and season with salt
Cook for about 5-7 minutes (until just cooked through) and then remove from pan
Reduce heat to medium and add in the remaining tsp of avocado oil
Sauté the trimmed and halved green beans for 5 minutes - you want them to get some caramelization on the outside but not to get too soft
Add the cooked ground turkey in with the green beans and pour the sauce over top - stir and continue to cook over medium heat until the sauce is thickened and the ground turkey is heated through (about 3-5 minutes)
Remove from heat and serve over cauliflower rice or grain of choice
Top with optional green onion, pepper flakes and sesame seeds

*nutritional information does not include cauliflower rice

Recipe Notes

We like to serve this stir fry over cauliflower rice to pump up the veggies and keep it lower carb but you could also serve it over rice or your preferred grain
A small amount of honey is used to balance out the salt and spice, but you can omit or use a liquid sweetener of choice
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days - it is a great meal prep option
If you cannot find the chili garlic sauce, you can use your favorite Asian hot sauce, like sriracha
