Ingredients
- 8 ounces lean ground beef
- ½ cup finely diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup sliced celery
- ½ cup chopped green cabbage
- 1 bell pepper sliced
- ½ cup sliced water chestnuts drained, optional
- 4 cups cooked white rice or noodles
Sauce
- ½ cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Combine beef broth soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, cook the beef and onion over medium-high until no pink remains. Drain fat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook 2 more minutes or until fragrant. Transfer to a bowl to keep warm.
- Heat oil in the pan. Add the celery and cabbage and cook for 3-4 minutes or until it begins to soften. Add peppers and cook 2-3 minutes more.
- Add the ground beef mixture, water chestnuts if using, and the sauce to the pan. Stir to combine. Allow sauce to simmer and thicken, stirring occasionally.
- Serve over rice and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions if desired.
Notes
- Assemble and prep all ingredients before starting. This recipe comes together quickly.
- Use the vegetables in the recipe or the ones you like best.
- Vegetables that take longer to cook (carrots, celery) should be added first. Bell peppers and broccoli take less time and can be added during the last few minutes.
- Replace the homemade sauce with a purchased stir-fry sauce if desired.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to four days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
