Ground Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Ingredients

• 1 cup beef broth
• 0.25 cups soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 2 teaspoons garlic
• 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 3 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 cups yellow onion
• 2 packages broccoli florets , 8 ounce
• 1 pound ground beef
• 0.75 teaspoons kosher salt
• 2 cups cooked jasmine or sticky rice
• scallions

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients.

2. 2

   Whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, ginger, garlic, and rice vinegar in a bowl until combined and sugar and cornstarch are dissolved; set aside.

3. 3

   Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add broccoli, and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green, tender-crisp, and onion is browned, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Do not wipe skillet clean.

4. 4

   Reduce the heat to medium, and add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add ground beef and salt, and cook, stirring often to break meat into even crumbles, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

5. 5

   Whisk broth mixture again, and pour into skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Return broccoli mixture to skillet, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce evenly coats meat and vegetables, 3 to 4 minutes.

6. 6

   Serve over rice, and garnish with scallions and toasted sesame seeds.
