THAI GROUND CHICKEN BASIL
This delicious recipe most closely resembles my favorite Thai restaurant's Ground Chicken Basil. I've searched for recipes, but none gave this authentic taste. It's quick and easy, too! Serve with steamed rice if you like.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, fish sauce, lime zest, lime juice and sugar. (If you think your fish sauce is very salty, start with 2 teaspoons; you can add more at the end if the dish needs it.).
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ginger, garlic, jalapeño and chopped scallion. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about a minute. Stir in turkey. Cook meat, breaking it up with a fork, until it is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in soy sauce mixture and cook for a minute or so, until flavors come together. Remove from heat and stir in basil. Scatter with sliced scallion greens. Serve, over warm coconut or regular rice, with lime wedges on the side.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
- Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A wok or large skillet is ideal for this recipe as it allows you to easily toss and stir the ingredients.
- Brown the Turkey Thoroughly: Make sure you brown the ground turkey thoroughly before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the turkey from becoming dry.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil and cilantro, really brighten up this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The flavors are at their best when the dish is hot and fresh.
