Ground Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Ingredients

• ½ cup reduced sodium soy sauce, or gluten-free tamari
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• ½ tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 pound ground beef, 93% lean
• ½ medium yellow onion, chopped
• 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets and blanched*
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 3 medium scallions, sliced on the bias
• cooked rice, or cauliflower rice, for serving (optional)

  Instructions

• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside.
• Add the sesame oil to a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is just about cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Pour in the reserved sauce, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute. Add the broccoli and cook for 1 more minute.
• Divide mixture evenly among 4 plates or shallow bowls, layering rice first, if using. Top each with sesame seeds and scallions
