Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 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 or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the broccoli florets and sliced bell peppers. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, beef broth, ground ginger, and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the beef and vegetables in the skillet.
- Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet, tossing 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 ground beef.
