Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup bell pepper, sliced (any color)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the sliced bell pepper and broccoli florets. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, beef broth, ground ginger, and black pepper until smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce.
- Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
Notes
- For a healthier option, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
- Add more vegetables such as snap peas or carrots for extra color and nutrition.
