Sticky Teriyaki Beef

 


Rachel gave me this recipe and we tried it last week and it was SO yummy and easy. It's definitely a new one for the rotation.


Sticky Teriyaki Bowls

from Lillie Eats and Tells

1/2 c onion, diced (130 g)

1 c red pepper, diced (160 g)

1 lb 96% lean ground beef (454 grams) (I used ground turkey and it was delicious)

2 tsp corn starch (6 g)

1 frozen garlic cube, or minced clove

3 Tbsp Teriyaki sauce (60 g)

1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)

1/4 tsp pepper

1/2 c green onions, chopped (15g)


Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Spray with a mist of oil and add your onions and bell pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until very fragrant, stirring often.

Scoot the veggies to one side, spray the pan again, and add your beef, letting it sit for a couple of minutes to brown. Your veggies will continue to cook and that's good. Just stir them if needed.

After a couple of minutes, crumble your beef with a meat masher or wooden spoon and brown it all in the pan. Sprinkle the meat with corn starch and stir it around, cooking for a minute before adding the garlic and teriyaki sauce. Let that cook for another minute, stirring everything together in the pan, then remove from heat.

Season with salt and pepper to taste an toss in the chopped green onions. Enjoy over rice or noodles. *I think it would also be yummy to add in cabbage and chopped carrots as a topping.
