Looking for something quick and easy for dinner? This one doesn't disappoint. There are days that I don't feel like being enslaved in the kitchen, and just want something quick to throw together right before family comes home for dinner. This recipe's ingredients are something we usually stock up in our pantry or freezer already (we call it the "basics"). It doesn't take very long to make this dish and the flavor is amazing. My dear hubby devoured it like crazy! He even suggested of using it as a filling for "lettuce wraps" which I think it's brilliant! Definitely, will be using lettuce instead of rice next time for a change.
Ingredients
1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup brown sugar (I use 1/4 cup instead, to cut back on sugar)
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2-1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (depending on how spicy you like it)
salt and pepper
1 bunch of green onions, diced
Rice, cooked
Sweet peas, steamed (optional)
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and brown hamburger with garlic in the sesame oil. Drain most of the fat and add brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, salt and pepper and red peppers. Simmer for a few minutes to blend the flavors. Serve over steamed rice and top with green onions, and steamed peas on the side.
