Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1⁄4 cup hot honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Salt to taste
- 1⁄4 cup chopped green onions, for garnish
- Sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the hot honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to combine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir until the rice is well coated with the beef mixture. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Remove from heat and serve the beef mixture in bowls. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for an added pop of flavor.
Notes
- For a spicier dish, add more hot honey or include a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- This bowl can be made with chicken or turkey as an alternative to beef.
- Pair the dish with a side of steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
- Hot honey can be found in most supermarkets or online, or you can make your own by mixing honey with a touch of chili.
- This recipe is perfect for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
