Description

This Ground Beef and Cabbage Skillet is a quick and flavorful stir-fry featuring lean ground beef, fresh cabbage, bell pepper, and shredded carrots cooked in a savory soy and apple cider vinegar sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90/10)
  • ½ teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • ½ large head green cabbage, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat ½ tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat to prepare for browning the meat.
  2. Add 1 pound of lean ground beef to the hot skillet and cook for about 5 minutes while breaking it apart with a spatula, until it is fully browned.
  3. Stir in ½ teaspoon minced ginger, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, and 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional). Cook together for 2 more minutes to blend flavors.
  4. Add ½ large sliced green cabbage, 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper, 1 cup shredded carrots, and 3 sliced green onions to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
  5. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar. Pour this mixture over the beef and vegetable skillet.
  6. Stir well to evenly coat all ingredients with the sauce. Continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, then remove the skillet from heat.
  7. Transfer the stir-fry to a serving dish, then sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added flavor and presentation.
