Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef or turkey
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 medium Zucchini, sliced into half moons
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 0.25 cup Coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground meat to the pan, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Once hot, add the sliced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper, zucchini, carrot, and broccoli to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes until they start to soften but still have a slight crunch.
Return the cooked ground meat to the pan and mix well with the vegetables.
Pour in the coconut aminos and fish sauce, and add the grated ginger and red chili flakes. Stir everything together to combine the flavors, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Paleo Savory Ground Meat Stir-Fry!
