1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

2. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.

3. Stir in minced garlic and ginger; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl, then pour into the skillet.

5. Stir well and simmer for 2–3 minutes until sauce slightly thickens.

6. Serve the beef over rice, topped with green onions and sesame seeds.

For a leaner version, use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.

Add vegetables like shredded carrots or bell peppers for color and crunch.

This Korean-inspired ground beef bowl reheats beautifully and is ideal for meal prep.

To make it spicy, add a spoonful of gochujang or extra red pepper flakes.
