Ground Beef and Broccoli

Step 1

Combine cornstarch + 2 Tablespoons water in a covered container and shake to combine. Place in the fridge.

Step 2

Combine remaining sauce ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Heat the oil over medium heat. Add the broccoli and toss to coat. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until slightly softened. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

Season the beef with salt/white pepper if desired. Cook and crumble the ground beef and diced onions over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through. Drain grease. Add sliced bell peppers and cook for 1 minute.

Step 5

Add sauce mixture and bring to a gentle boil. Let it simmer/reduce for 2-3 minutes. Remove cornstarch mixture from the fridge and give it a shake. Slowly stir it into the sauce. Let it continue to bubble gently until desired thickness is obtained.

Step 6

Reduce heat to low. Add broccoli back and stir to combine and heat through. Garnish with green onions and serve over rice!
