Ground Beef Ramen Bowls

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together all the sauce ingredients until combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Warm sesame oil in a large deep nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; swirl to coat. Once shimmering, add the ground beef and white parts of the scallions and cook, breaking up the beef into tiny crumbles, until no pink remains. Drain off the grease. Transfer meat to a bowl and keep warm.

Step 3

Add water to the skillet and bring to a boil. Add ramen noodles and frozen vegetables; cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are separated and tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain off any excess water.

Step 4

Reduce heat to medium and return cooked ground beef to the skillet with the noodles and veggies. Pour in the sauce and cook, stirring to coat and heat through, about 2 minutes.

Step 5

Serve in bowls with a sprinkle of the green parts of the scallions, crushed peanuts, and chopped cilantro.
