Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef 90% lean (I prefer Certifed Angus Beef Brand)
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 small purple onion diced
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 4 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cups hot cooked rice
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, cook beef (I prefer Certified Angus Beef), garlic and purple onion over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until beef is no longer pink, breaking up beef into crumbles. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix brown sugar, soy sauce, oil and seasonings.
  • Stir sauce into beef; heat through. Serve with rice. Sprinkle with green onions.
