Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 lb ground turkey (or chicken)

  • 2 tbsp Thai red curry paste
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, combine the oil and turkey. Cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat as it cooks until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the chili paste, butter, garlic, and ginger. Cook 2 minutes, until the butter browns and the turkey gets crispy.
