Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped jalapeño, divided
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced, divided
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, divided
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 cup gochujang, divided
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 small zucchini, cut into half-moons
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil
  • 1 cup uncooked short-grain rice
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the smoker to 275°F. Rinse the rice under cold water, then cook it according to the package directions. Keep it covered while you prepare the rest of the meal.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, panko, 1 tablespoon of the jalapeño, half of the sliced scallions, 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and 2 tablespoons of the gochujang. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Shape the turkey mixture into a compact loaf and place it on a smoker-safe tray. Smoke until the center reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes. Rest the meatloaf for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • While the meatloaf smokes, whisk the remaining gochujang with the honey, remaining soy sauce, and remaining sesame oil. Toss the bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion with the neutral cooking oil and about half of the gochujang mixture.
  • Spread the vegetables in a grill basket or smoker-safe pan. Smoke them alongside the meatloaf for 25 to 35 minutes, stirring once, until tender with lightly browned edges. Toss with the remaining gochujang mixture.
  • Divide the rice among four bowls. Add sliced smoked turkey meatloaf and the gochujang vegetables. Finish with the remaining jalapeño and scallions, then sprinkle with sesame seeds.

For a milder bowl, use less jalapeño in the meatloaf and leave it off the finished bowls. Keep the vegetables in a single layer so they brown rather than steam, and check the meatloaf temperature near the end of smoking to avoid drying it out.
