Ingredients:

  • 1 lb lean ground beef (90% lean or higher)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • 3 cups cooked brown rice
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 2 cups steamed broccoli florets
  • 3 stalks green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions:

  1. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned and crispy. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for 60–90 seconds until fragrant and garlic is golden.
  3. Whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Pour the mixture into the skillet and stir constantly for 2–3 minutes until the sauce bubbles and thickens into a glossy glaze.
  4. Divide the cooked brown rice among four bowls. Top with the glazed beef, steamed broccoli, and shredded carrots. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
