Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 or similar)
- 1 large zucchini
- 1 medium bell pepper (red, green, or yellow)
- 8 oz mushrooms
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
- 0.25 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dice the zucchini, bell pepper, and mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Cut the broccoli into small florets. Mince the garlic and ginger, and chop the green onions.
Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season with half of the soy sauce (1 tablespoon), ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Remove the cooked ground beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Add the broccoli and cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the zucchini, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and combine it with the vegetables.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry. Stir thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm through.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your keto-friendly stir-fried vegetables with ground meat.
