Bang Bang Sauce Ingredients
- ¼ cup mayonnaise Can substitute with Greek yogurt.
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce Adjust based on spice preference.
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce Coconut aminos can be used for gluten-free.
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Garnishes
- ¼ cup green onions, chopped

Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Make sure your rice is already cooked and set aside. Chop the green onions and cilantro ahead of time for quick assembly.
Cooking the Turkey
- In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground turkey. Cook until it is browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula for even cooking.
Making the Sauce
- In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, and lime juice. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
Combining Ingredients
- Once the turkey is fully cooked, remove it from the heat. Pour the sauce mixture over the turkey and stir until well combined.
- In serving bowls, place a generous portion of cooked rice and spoon the turkey mixture over it.
Garnishing and Serving
- Sprinkle the chopped green onions and cilantro on top before serving. Adjust seasoning with more sriracha or lime juice as needed.
- Serve the Bang Bang Turkey Rice Bowls immediately while warm.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze the turkey mixture separately from the rice. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
