Preparation
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter (1 Tbsp) for the turkey. Add the ground turkey (6 oz), breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook for 5–6 minutes until browned. Stir in the grated ginger (1 tsp), minced garlic (1 clove), red pepper flakes (¼ tsp), and soy sauce or coconut aminos (1 tsp). Cook for another 1–2 minutes until aromatic. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a separate skillet over medium heat, melt butter (1 Tbsp) and add the cauliflower rice (1 cup). Sauté for 3–4 minutes until just tender. Stir in lime juice (1 tsp), if using, and a pinch of salt.
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise (2 Tbsp), sriracha (½ tsp), avacado oil (½ tsp, optional), and white vinegar (½ tsp) to make the spicy drizzle.
To assemble, layer the cauliflower rice in a bowl. Top with the spicy ground turkey and garnish with chopped green onion or cilantro (1 Tbsp). Finish with a generous drizzle of the spicy sauce and serve warm.
