Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Ground Beef (opt for 80-85% lean)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar (lightly packed)
- 1 tsp Sesame Oil
- 1/4 tsp Ground Ginger
- 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes (adjust to taste)
- 2 cups Cooked Rice (white or brown)
- 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds (for garnish)
- 2 pieces Green Onions (thinly sliced)
- Extras (optional – shredded carrots, steamed broccoli, or a fried egg)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks, browning the meat until it’s fully cooked, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Once the beef is cooked, add three cloves of minced garlic to the skillet, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then mix in ¼ cup of low-sodium soy sauce, ¼ cup of brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil.
- Reduce the heat to medium and allow the beef mixture to simmer for 3-5 minutes.
- Prepare your cooked rice as the beef simmers. Once the beef mixture is done, serve it hot over the rice. Top with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and freshly sliced green onions.
