Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    Put the turkey chunks in a ziplock bag with 1/2 cup butte milk, 1 tbsp chili paste, and 1/4 cup rice vinegar. Refrigetate for 4 hours up to overnight.

  2. 2

    When you're turkey is done marinating set up three bowls. One with your whole wheat flower, one with egg white mixed with 2 tbsp buttermilk, and a tsp flour, and one with bread crumbs. Preheat oven to 350F (~175C)

  3. 3

    Coat the turkey pieces by first covering in flower, then egg mixture then bread crumbs. For more details on this method, please see my Baked Chicken Parmesan Recipe.

  4. 4

    Transfer each turkey bite to a plate after breading. For more details on this method, please see my Baked Chicken Parmesan Recipe.

  5. 5

    Place the turkey on wire racks and then cook in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the turkey bites reach an internal temperature of about 160F.

  6. 6

    While the turkey is cooking you can prepare the sauce. Combine honey, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, chili oil, remaining chili paste, soy sauce, remaining rice vinegar in a sauce pan, cook over medium high heat until boiling. Combine corn starch with 1/8 cu water and mix well. Then add corn starch to the sauce. Making a slurry with the corn starch first will prevent clumping. Reduce heat and simmer until the turkey bites are ready.

  7. 7

    Remove turkey from the oven and place in a container with a lid.

  8. 8

    Pour sauce over turkey bites, cover and toss to coat. Garnish with scallion greens and sesame seeds.
