Ingredients:
– 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
– 2 tablespoons coconut oil
– 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
– 1/2 cup broccoli florets
– 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari)
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 tablespoon minced garlic
– 1 tablespoon minced ginger
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Cook the Ground Beef
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper, and let it cook for about 6-7 minutes, until browned and slightly crispy at the edges.
Pro Tip: Let the beef develop a nice sear by not stirring too often—caramelization means more flavor!
2. Sauté Aromatics
Once the beef is fully cooked, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the minced garlic and ground ginger. Stir and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant. This step adds a punch of flavor to the dish.
3. Make the Sauce
Stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil, ensuring the beef is well-coated. Let everything simmer together for 2-3 minutes to bring out the deep, savory flavors and slightly thicken the sauce.
Substitution Tip: Coconut aminos can replace soy sauce for a soy-free version.
4. Add Green Onions
Stir in the chopped green onions at the last minute for a fresh, crunchy element. They add just the right amount of texture to balance the rich flavors of the beef and sesame oil.
5. Taste and Adjust
Taste the stir-fry and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add a little more salt or pepper, or even a splash more soy sauce for extra umami. Once it’s perfect, you’re ready to serve!
