Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (or pork, turkey, chicken)
- 200 grams Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Zucchini, diced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or avocado oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and prepare all vegetables by cutting broccoli into bite-sized florets, dicing the zucchini and red bell pepper, and julienning the carrot.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground meat to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes if using.
Push the cooked meat to one side of the skillet and add the broccoli, zucchini, red bell pepper, and carrot to the other side.
Drizzle the vegetables with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
Combine the vegetables with the meat in the skillet and pour in the soy sauce. Stir everything together thoroughly to coat the ingredients evenly, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve hot as is, or pair with cauliflower rice or lettuce wraps for a complete low-carb meal.
