Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 2

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, honey, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes.

Step 4

Pour the sauce over the browned beef and stir to coat the meat evenly.

Step 5

Continue to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 6

Season the beef with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Meanwhile, in a separate pan, lightly toast the sesame seeds over low heat until golden, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Serve the Korean beef over a bed of cauliflower rice.
