- 05Add the turkey bites and sear for 4 to 5 minutes, turning regularly, until lightly browned on all sides and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- 06Brush lightly with honey during the final minute of cooking to glaze.
- 07Transfer to a plate and serve warm, garnished with sliced fresh bird's-eye chili and raw garlic slices.
