Ingredients

  • ¼ cup soy sauce, ( (if doing Paleo, replace with Coconut Aminos or wheat-free soy sauce for gluten-free diets))
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2-3 tbsp fresh ginger, (grated )
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 cloves garlic, (peeled and minced)
  • 1 cup carrots, (julienned or shredded)
  • 2 cups cabbage, (shredded or coarsely chopped)
  • 1 pack bean sprouts, ((about 3 cups))

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine the seasoning sauce (soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil and fresh ginger). We love ginger so we use the full 3 tablespoons but adjust it to your taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In medium heat, cook the ground beef in a skillet or wok until the meat changes its color. No need to add oil if your beef is 80/20 or has a little bit of fat. Add the minced garlic and continue to cook until the beef is deep-brown in color and crunchy.

  3. 3

    Increase the heat, add the carrots and saute for about 1 minute. Add the cabbage and bean sprouts and cook for another minute.

  4. 4

    Pour all the sauce into the beef and veggie mixture and mix well. Cook just until everything is heated through - another minute or so. Serve immediately on top of rice.
