Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon, grated fresh ginger
- 250 grams broccoli florets
- 300 grams cooked brown rice
- 2 sliced green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook and crumble it with a spatula until it is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the diced red bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and grated fresh ginger.
Pour the sauce over the beef mixture in the skillet. Stir well to ensure the beef and vegetables are evenly coated.
Add the broccoli florets, cover the skillet, and let it steam for 4-5 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sliced green onions.
Serve the beef mixture over the cooked brown rice in bowls.
Garnish with sesame seeds before serving.
