Easy Ground Beef and Broccoli

Ingredients: (Serves 3-4)

1.5 cups dry rice, 3 cups water

1/2 cup soy sauce

1 tbsp honey

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 inch piece fresh ginger, grated

1 tbsp corn starch

1 tbsp olive oil, for the pan

1 pound ground beef (I use 90% lean)

1/2 yellow onion, diced

1 large head broccoli

Toppings: sesame seeds + scallions

Recipe:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside.

2. Add the olive oil to a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is just about cooked through, about 5 minutes.

3. Pour in the reserved sauce, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute. Add the broccoli and cook for 1 more minute.

4. Divide mixture evenly among 4 plates or shallow bowls, layering rice first, if using.

5. Top with sesame seeds and scallions. Enjoy!
