Description
A delightful dish that balances savory and sweet flavors with tender ground beef coated in hot honey sauce, served over rice and garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
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 minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent (3-4 minutes).
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it into small pieces while cooking for 6-8 minutes until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat if needed.
- Stir in the hot honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt, mixing well and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice to the skillet, stirring to coat completely, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat, serve in bowls, and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
For a leaner option, use 80/20 ground beef. Adjust the hot honey based on your spice preference. Leftovers store well in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.
