Ingredients

Peanut Sauce

  • 2 ½ tbsp creamy unsalted peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp brown sugar

Bowl Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp neutral-flavored oil, divided
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 bell peppers, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
  • Cooked rice (white or brown)
  • Sliced green onion
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Whisk together all sauce ingredients until creamy. Set aside.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown beef, breaking it into small pieces, until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Add to a bowl, leaving remaining fat in the skillet.

  3. Heat skillet back up over medium-high and add in veggies. Cook until tender and transfer to a bowl.

  4. Add remaining tbsp of oil to the skillet. Cook ginger and garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Pour in sauce. Bring to a low boil then add in cooked beef and veggies. Stir well to fully coat.

  5. Serve beef and veggies over cooked rice. Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
