• 1 large egg
• 1 tbsp ginger, minced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt

For the Dipping Sauce:

• 3 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce

Directions:


Preheat oven to 500°F.

In a large bowl combine the ground turkey, panko, egg, salt, scallions, ginger, cilantro, 1 tbsp of the soy sauce and 2 tsp sesame oil. Gently mix with your hands until combined well.
