How to Make Asian Ground Beef And Pepper Saute
- Cook the rice: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.
- Brown the beef: In a large skillet or wok, brown 1 lb of ground beef over medium-high heat. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks. Once browned, drain off any excess grease and set aside.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add 1 red bell pepper (sliced), 1 green bell pepper (sliced), 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger. Season with 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Cook until tender-crisp: Cook and stir the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender-crisp.
- Combine and simmer: Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet. Stir in 1/2 cup beef stock, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon chile paste (or to taste), and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce.
- Thicken and serve: Cook and stir for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Serve the Asian Ground Beef and Pepper Saute hot over the cooked rice.
