Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep Ingredients: Wash and chop vegetables—broccoli into florets, bell pepper into strips, zucchini into half-moons, and mushrooms into slices. Mince the garlic.
  2. Cook Beef: In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Then, add ground beef, cooking until browned (4-5 minutes). Stir in soy sauce, chili flakes, and brown sugar; simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  3. Sauté Veggies: In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Toss in mushrooms and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add broccoli, zucchini, and red bell pepper; cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  4. Assemble Bowl: Start with a scoop of rice in each bowl, top with ground beef mixture and sautéed vegetables. Drizzle extra soy sauce if desired and serve immediately.
