Description
A quick and flavorful Korean beef skillet recipe featuring ground beef cooked with garlic, ginger, and a savory-sweet sauce, served over steamed rice and garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
3 cups cooked white rice
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Drain excess fat from the skillet if necessary.
Add the minced garlic and minced ginger to the beef and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, crushed red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked beef in the skillet and stir to combine.
Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the beef.
Remove the skillet from heat.
Serve the Korean beef over cooked white rice.
Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
