A quick and flavorful Korean-inspired ground beef rice bowl with fresh vegetables and a savory sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

- 1 cup cucumber, sliced
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Cook the jasmine rice according to package directions and keep warm.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it up as it browns.
