Ingredients

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, diced onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1 diced bell pepper
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 large, diced carrot
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 chopped green onions

Directions

Step 1

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and garlic, sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, using a wooden spoon to break the meat into small pieces. Cook until browned through, about 6-7 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the diced bell pepper and carrot, cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables start softening.

Step 5

Pour in the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce, stirring well to coat the beef and vegetables evenly.

Step 6

Add the cooked brown rice and mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients.

Step 7

Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 8

Stir in the frozen peas and ground black pepper, continuing to cook for another 5 minutes until the peas are heated through and the liquid has mostly evaporated.

Step 9

Taste for seasoning, adjusting with additional soy sauce or pepper if needed.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
