Raw ground turkey is a versatile and lean protein option, commonly used in a variety of cuisines ranging from American to Mediterranean. Made from finely ground turkey meat, it typically contains a mix of white and dark cuts, offering a lower fat content compared to ground beef. Packed with essential nutrients, it is a good source of protein, B vitamins, selenium, and phosphorus, which support muscle building and energy production. Opting for extra-lean ground turkey can further reduce saturated fat content, making it a heart-healthy choice. However, raw ground turkey must be carefully cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F to eliminate the risk of foodborne illnesses like salmonella. Its mild flavor makes it ideal for dishes such as turkey burgers, meatballs, tacos, or stir-fries, providing a nutritious and adaptable ingredient for health-conscious recipes.
