2 boneless, skinless turkey breasts, cut into 1” cubes
3 Tbsp soy sauce, divided
2 Tbsp lemon juice, divided
2 tsp ginger, minced
2 tsp garlic, minced
¼ cup + 1 Tbsp cornstarch
4 Tbsp canola oil
1 Tbsp honey
1 can (284 mL) mandarin orange segments + juice
1 Tbsp orange marmalade
1 Tbsp rice vinegar
½ tsp sesame oil
½ cup salted cashews
sesame seeds to garnish (optional)
Directions
In a large bowl combine 2 Tbsp soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger and garlic. Add cubed turkey and marinate for 15-30 minutes in refrigerator.
Using a slotted spoon remove turkey from marinade to a clean bowl. Discard marinade. Sprinkle turkey with ¼ cup of cornstarch and toss to coat.
In a large fry pan heat oil over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add turkey cubes and sauté, turning, until cooked through. About 4 minutes per batch. Set aside on a paper towel.
In a saucepan over medium heat, add remaining 1 Tbsp soy sauce, honey, reserved orange juice, marmalade, rice vinegar and sesame oil. In a small bowl mix remaining 1 Tbsp cornstarch with 2 Tbsp water to make a slurry. Stir into sauce. Bring to a low boil stirring, until sauce thickens.
Add turkey cubes to sauce and toss to coat. Add mandarin oranges and cashews, stirring to combine.
Serve over rice with steamed broccoli side.
