Easy Korean Beef Bowl

First, I want to say that I stand with those hurting in the US and all over the world about racial injustice.  I hope non-minorities are taking time to educate themselves right now.  Talk to others, read articles, watch documentaries or shows on the subject.  We can all do better! 

Ok, now onto the recipe.  This is a quick, easy and flavorful meal.  I used ginger paste for the ginger and had everything on hand to make this.  Make sure you use reduced-sodium soy sauce for this, otherwise it would be too salty.  If you don't like the taste of sesame oil, feel free to use any oil you have on hand.  Feel free to add extras to this, such as fresh or cooked veggies or sauces.
Easy Korean Beef Bowl
adapted from Allrecipes

1 pound lean ground beef
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper, optional
6 green onions, chopped, divided (or chives)
4 cups hot cooked rice
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

1.  Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and cook, stirring and crumbling into small pieces until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess grease.

2.  Add garlic, ginger, and sesame oil, stirring until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in soy sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper. Cook until some of the sauce absorbs into the beef, about 7 minutes. Add 1/2 of the chopped green onions or chives.
3.  Serve beef over hot cooked rice; garnished with sesame seeds and remaining green onions or chives.
