Ingredients
- 2 pounds SRF Ground Beef
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 ½ tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 4 cups small broccoli florets
- rice, for serving
Directions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Set the sauce aside.
Add the ground beef to a large skillet set over medium heat. Brown the meat, breaking it apart with a spatula, until it is no longer pink.
Add the broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
Drain any grease from the pan then add the prepared sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring, for 1 minute until the sauce thickens slightly. Spoon over rice and serve.
