This recipe is so easy and comes together in minutes. While the beef is cooking I cook my rice and mix together the sauce ingredients. The sauce is made up of soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger. It is so simple yet so amazing!
This can also be made with ground turkey or ground chicken. But ground beef is definitely my favorite! Enjoy!
