Servings: 4 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
Sauce
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- Sliced green onions for garnish
Stir fry
- 1 pound 90% lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper finely chopped
- 2 cups small broccoli florets
Instructions
- Whisk the soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch until smooth; set aside.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high. Add the oil and the ground beef, breaking it up, until browned half way cooked, 3–4 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped onion and red pepper; cook 2 minutes. Add the broccoli florets and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Pour the sauce over the beef mixture and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and is well combined with everything, about 1 minute.
- Remove from heat. Sprinkle with green onions over steamed rice, if desired.
Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, I usually just toss it in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water or broth to loosen up the sauce. Microwave works too, just cover it so it doesn’t dry out.
