Korean Beef Bowls (Edit)

For added nutrients and vitamins, you can add carrots, broccoli, or bell peppers as a side–they pair well with the korean flavors.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup brown sugar, packed

  • ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce

  • 1 tsp sesame seed oil

  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes, crushed

  • ¼ tsp ground ginger

  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 lb. ground beef

  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

  • ¼ tsp sesame seeds

Directions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper flakes and ginger.

  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; drain excess fat.

  • Stir in soy sauce mixture and green onions until well combined, allowing to simmer until heated through, about 2 minutes.

  • Serve immediately, garnished with green onion and sesame seeds, if desired.
