Instructions

To prepare the tomatoes:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes and red onion.
  2. Squeeze out the lemon juice and add to the tomato mixture. Toss and set aside while you assemble the remaining ingredeints.

To prepare the ground meat:

  1. In a large pan, drizzle the oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened.
  3. Stir in the garlic and cook until just fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  4. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring and breaking up into little pieces, until browned.
  5. Add the sake, stirring the bottom and sides well to deglaze the pan if needed.
  6. Stir in the ketchup, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce, then the taco seasonings and water. Continue to cook until most of the liquid has dissolved to create a thickened sauce. Adjust seasonings to taste and remove from heat.
  7. Divide the rice among four bowls.
  8. Top with the seasoned beef, then desired toppings- lettuce, cheese, tomato mixture, and sour cream.
  9. Serve immediately.
