A quick weeknight meal combining rich, savory flavors with the simplicity of ground beef.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground beef
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 cup green onions, chopped
4 cups cooked rice
2 cups vegetables (like bell peppers and carrots), sliced
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
Once the beef is fully cooked, drain any excess fat from the skillet. Return the skillet to the heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Add the sliced vegetables to the skillet, cooking until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
To serve, place a generous scoop of cooked rice in a bowl, top with the beef and vegetable mixture, and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
