Description
A quick and satisfying stir-fry bowl packed with spicy ground beef, colorful garlic veggies, and fluffy rice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for the beef)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
- 1/2 zucchini, sliced
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for the veggies)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce (for the veggies)
- 1 cup steamed white rice
Instructions
- Prepare all your vegetables: wash, chop, and set them aside. Mince the garlic for both the beef and veggies, and measure out all your sauces and seasonings.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the sesame oil and the minced garlic for the beef. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef and cook until it’s browned, crumbling it into small pieces.
- Stir in soy sauce, chili flakes, and brown sugar. Let it simmer for 3–4 minutes until it thickens slightly, then remove from heat.
- In a separate pan, heat olive oil and sauté the minced garlic for the veggies for another 30 seconds.
- Toss in the mushrooms and cook for around 2 minutes until they soften.
- Add broccoli, zucchini, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until tender-crisp.
- Drizzle the veggies with soy sauce, tossing to combine.
- Serve hot by spooning the steamed rice into bowls, topping with the beef and vegetable mix. Drizzle any extra sauce over the top.
