Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
In a small bowl, mix 2 Tbsp coconut aminos, 1 Tbsp avocado oil, 1 Tbsp sugar-free maple syrup, 1 Tbsp lime juice, and 1 pinch chili flakes until combined. Set aside.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 Tbsp avocado oil. Once hot, stir in the ground turkey and chopped garlic. Cook while stirring occasionally until the turkey is browned and cooked through, about 8–10 minutes.
-
Add zucchini and carrots to the turkey mixture. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring to combine. Add kale and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes until it begins to soften.
-
Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce over the mixture and stir well. Cook for another 2 minutes to ensure everything is evenly coated and the kale is fully wilted.
-
Serve the stir-fry over rice and sprinkle peanuts on top for a crunchy garnish.
