- ✓Cook ground turkey to an internal temperature of 165°F but let it continue browning for 2-3 extra minutes to develop crispy edges through moisture evaporation.timing165°F + 2-3 minutes
- ✓Add coleslaw mix when the pan temperature drops to 350°F (after turkey releases moisture) so cabbage retains 70% of its crunch through quick steam-cooking.technique350°F
