Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, and add olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Remove excess fat if necessary.
- Add minced garlic, ginger, and soy sauce to the beef, stirring for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
- In a bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Pour this mixture into the skillet along with honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir to combine and allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add the broccoli florets to the skillet, and toss the ingredients together to combine. Cover and let simmer on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, until broccoli is tender yet crisp.
- Stir in crushed red pepper flakes if you prefer a bit of heat, then taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Serve the stir-fry over steamed rice or noodles and sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh broccoli for the best taste and crunch.
- Ensure the ground beef is well-drained to avoid a greasy dish.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey based on your preference.
- Add bell peppers or snap peas for more color and nutrition.
- Use chicken instead of beef for a leaner protein option.
