How to Make Asian Ground Beef Pepper And Onion Saute

1. Spray a large skillet or wok with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
2. Add 1 lb 96% lean ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
3. Add 1 large bell pepper (any color), chopped, 1 medium onion, chopped, 2 cloves garlic, minced, and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger.
4. Stir in 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste), and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
5. Cook and stir until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
6. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup beef stock, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon molasses, 1 tablespoon chili paste, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce.
7. Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables. Bring to a simmer.
8. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth.
9. Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce. Stir constantly until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, about 1-2 minutes.
10. Stir in 1 cup water chestnuts, sliced (optional).
11. Serve hot over cooked rice. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
