Korean Ground Beef Stir Fry
There is one thing that I can count on all of my kids to eat and it is this recipe for Korean Ground Beef Rice Bowls. In fact, my cute ten year old makes it for the family each week. I decided to switch it up a little when we made it this week and turn it into a stir fry! Let me tell you. This was so incredible with fresh veggies added. The sauce is the absolute best on this and it makes the flavor out of this world good. We are reminded every single time that we make it why it is a favorite at your house. I know that it will become a favorite at your house, and if my ten year old can make it, you can too!
How do you make stir fry?
- In a large skillet cook the ground beef and garlic breaking it into crumbles over medium heat until no longer pink. Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Drain the grease and add olive oil and veggies and cook until tender. Add the ground beef back to the skillet.
- In a small bowl whisk brown sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper flakes and pepper. Pour over the ground beef and let simmer for another minute or two.
- Serve over hot rice and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds
We used our families favorite vegetables in this which include sugar snap peas, carrots, red bell pepper, zucchini and mushrooms. You can always customize this to your families taste and preference. I love making a meal in one that is packed with delicious and fresh vegetables.

great recipe, thank you, love all of the options that may be used in stir frys, like these tweaks too, and don’t think I’ve ever had one with ground beef, nice, the perfect pairing with these ingredients
I have made many variations of this over the years, this sounds really good! Only change I will make, the meat. Simply can not tolerate the smell of cooking ground beef!! I have everything save the snap peas so I will be off to farmers market Sunday.!raf
I made this recipe after my son sent the link, stating it was awesome. The flavors are amazing, and you can add just about any kind of vegetables for variety. I actually double the slurry because it is sooo good mixed with your rice! This is a great recipe!
Made this for dinner using ground elk, and it was fantastic. I never thought of using ground meat in Asian stir-fry. Thank you!
Thanks for the great comment. I always love to hear about good substitution ideas. I am so glad that you loved the meal. Thanks for commenting and for following along! xoxo
Came upon this recipe while trying to use up some ingredients in the fridge; ground beef I purchased to make a meat loaf but didn’t have enough time to bake, and left over veggies from the Super Bowl veggie tray. I never would have imagined ground beef in a stir fry would be good….we LOVED it! I didn’t even have the same veggies (used cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms, red and yellow bell pepper, and a small amount of celery) Unfortunately I ran out of low-sodium soy and the sauce was a bit salty but just corrected with more brown sugar. This is definitely a KEEPER! Thank you 🙂
