Healthy Ground Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry in 20 Minutes!

A quick and healthy Ground Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry ready in just 20 minutes, perfect for a low-carb dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce (or extra soy sauce)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up (about 5 minutes). Drain excess fat.
  3. Add broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
  4. Pour in the sauce and toss everything to coat. If you want a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with 1 tbsp water and stir in.
  5. Cook for another 2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

Notes

  • Use frozen broccoli in a pinch — just add it frozen and cook a couple minutes longer.
  • Serve over cauliflower rice for a complete low-carb meal.
  • Swap ground beef for ground turkey if preferred.
