Ingredients:
1/3 cup fresh lime juice (from about 5 limes)
1 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 large lemon)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1/2 medium red onion, diced
3 small shallots, thinly sliced
1 4 -inch piece lemongrass, minced (about 1/4 cup)
1 thai chile (such as prik kee noo) or serrano chile, stemmed and thinly sliced
kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey (preferably dark meat)

Directions:
1. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk the lime juice, lemon juice, fish sauce and honey. Set aside.
2. Make the larb: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, shallots, lemongrass, chile, and salt to taste. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the turkey and season with salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the meat and vegetables are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the dressing to the pan and cook 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mint. Season with salt and pepper.
