Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450g) lean ground beef
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free option
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- Cooked brown rice or cauliflower rice (for serving)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a little sesame oil and cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Remove excess fat if needed.
- Add broccoli florets to the skillet with the ground beef. Pour in half of the teriyaki sauce and stir well. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp.
- Uncover and add the remaining teriyaki sauce. Stir to coat evenly and cook for another 2 minutes until heated through and glossy.
- Serve the beef and broccoli mixture over cooked brown rice or cauliflower rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- Use freshly grated ginger and minced garlic for maximum flavor.
- Adjust the sweetness or saltiness to taste by modifying the honey or soy sauce quantities.
- Experiment with vegetables like snap peas or carrots for variety.
- Meal prep in advance by storing sauce separately for fresher taste.
