How to Make Beef Over Rice

Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Add the rice and water to your rice cooker and cook according to manufacturer's instructions.
While the rice is cooking, heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Pour the soy sauce over the beef and cook for another minute, until the sauce is slightly thickened and the beef is cooked through.
Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork.
Serve the beef over a generous portion of rice. Enjoy!
