Description

A quick skillet meal of browned ground beef and crisp-tender broccoli in a savory soy-ginger sauce, perfect for weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooked rice for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  2. Add minced garlic and ginger, sautéing until fragrant.
  3. Cook ground beef until browned, stirring and breaking it up for caramelization.
  4. Stir in broccoli and soy sauce, tossing to coat.
  5. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until broccoli is tender-crisp and vibrant.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving over cooked rice.

Notes

Control browning by avoiding overcrowding in the skillet, and adjust seasoning only after adding soy sauce.
