Servings: 4
Course: Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • For the stir-fry:
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • For the sauce:
  • ¼ cup coconut aminos
  • 2 tsp sriracha adjust to taste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp arrowroot flour
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger

Method
 

  1. Cook the onions and garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, add diced onion over a drizzle of olive oil and cook for 5 minutes. Add in minced garlic and cook for additional 2 minutes.
  2. Cook ground beef: Add beef to skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes, breaking up the meat as it browns. Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. Add broccoli: Add broccoli florets. Cook for another 4–5 minutes, until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, arrowroot flour, and ground ginger until smooth.
  5. Combine: Pour the sauce into the skillet with the beef and broccoli. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Serve: Remove from heat and serve warm over rice, cauliflower rice, or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds or green onions if desired.
