This ground beef and broccoli stir fry is an ideal weeknight family dinner. Convenient pre-cut broccoli florets save time, and ground beef takes the place of sliced beef for ease. The simple stir-fry sauce brings it all together.

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 , 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.
