Ingredients
- – 1/2 cup (120 ml) soy sauce
- – 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey
- – 4 cloves garlic, minced
- – 1 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
- – 1 tablespoon (8 g) cornstarch
- – 1/2 tablespoon (7.5 ml) sesame oil
- – 1 pound (454 g) ground beef, 93% lean
- – 1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
- – 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets and blanched
- – 1 tablespoon (9 g) toasted sesame seeds
- – 3 medium scallions, sliced on the bias
- – cooked rice, or cauliflower rice, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornstarch by whisking them together. Set this mixture aside for later.
- Heat sesame oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and chopped onion, stirring occasionally, and cook until the beef is nearly done, approximately 5 minutes.
- Pour the previously prepared sauce into the skillet, mix well, and let it cook for an additional minute. Then, add the broccoli florets and continue cooking for another minute.
- Evenly distribute the stir fry onto four plates or shallow bowls, layering with rice first, if desired.
- Sprinkle each serving with toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
Notes
- Blanch broccoli before adding to stir fry for tender yet crisp texture.
- Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat content in the dish.
- Enhance flavor by using brown rice or cauliflower rice as a base.
