• 1 medium sweet potato
• 1 ½ teaspoons canola oil divided
• 2 teaspoons minced ginger
• ⅓ pound ground turkey
• ¼ teaspoon five spice powder divided
• ¾ cup small broccoli florets
• Toasted sesame seeds for garnish

The Sauce:

• 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 1 ½ teaspoons sesame oil
• ¼ teaspoon chili garlic sauce

• Pierce the sweet potato all over with the tines of a fork. Cook on HIGH in the microwave until tender when pierced with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

• Let the potato cool for several minutes, or until cool enough to handle. Cut in half lengthwise.

• Carefully scoop out the flesh of the potato and place in a medium-sized bowl. Reserve the skins.

• With the back of a fork, mash the potato flesh until most lumps are gone and stir in ⅛ teaspoon 5-spice powder. Scoop the mashed flesh into the potato skins.

• Heat 1 teaspoon of the canola oil in a medium skillet set over medium-high heat.

• Add the ginger and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

• Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through. Stir in the remaining ⅛ teaspoon of the 5-spice powder. Transfer the ground turkey to a bowl lined with paper towel.

• Heat ½ teaspoon canola oil in the skillet and add the broccoli. Cook until the broccoli is just tender, about 2 minutes.

• Add the ground turkey back to the skillet, along with the sauce. Cook until heated, about 1 minute.

• Spoon the turkey mixture onto the sweet potatoes. Garnish with sesame seeds.

The Sauce:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, soy sauce and sesame oil.
