Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup bell pepper, julienned
- 1 cup cabbage, julienned
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- ½ cup onion, julienned
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced
- ½ cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp chili crisp
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- ¼ cup water or vegetable stock
- Cooked rice (for serving)
- Sesame seeds and green onions (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the ground beef: Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon. Leave it alone to crisp up and fully cook, about 5–6 minutes.
- Add the garlic and onions: Add the minced garlic and the onions, saute for 2 minutes.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add the bell pepper, carrots and cabbage to the pan. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until the veggies are slightly tender but still crisp.
- Add the sauce: Pour in the teriyaki sauce, chili crisp, honey, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine and let everything simmer for 2–3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the beef and veggies. If it’s too dry, add ¼ cup of water or vegetable stock.
- Serve: Spoon the teriyaki beef mixture over cooked rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and chili oil if desired.
Notes
You can double the sauce if you prefer your bowls extra saucy. This recipe is also great for meal prep – just store in airtight containers for up to 4 days in the fridge. Keep the veggies crisp-tender for the best texture and color. Use any leftover vegetables to clear out your fridge.
