Ground Beef Stir Fry
When it comes to Beef Recipes, you can’t beat the simplicity of making a stir fry with some ground beef and fresh or frozen veggies! I love enjoying this sweet and savory brown sauce with a side of rice! I use a 7-vegetable combination here, (I love the flavor combinations and the crunch!)- but feel free to get creative with as many or as few as you like. As far as the sauce, I use a combination of beef and chicken broth for depth of flavor. Honey adds a sweet offset to the savory, and soy sauce adds umami. Garlic and ground ginger round out the flavors, and a touch of hot sauce acts as a subtle flavor enhancer. (And doesn’t make this spicy.)
How to Make It
See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions. Season the ground beef and brown it in olive oil until cooked through. Drain grease and set aside. Deglaze the skillet with white wine (or broth), and let it reduce by half. Add the broccoli, green beans, mushrooms, onions, and celery and cook for 3 minutes, or until slightly softened.
Add the carrots and bell peppers and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the sauce mixture and bring to a gentle bubble, reduce for 2-3 minutes.
Add cornstarch slurry to the bubbling sauce and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and add the beef back. Stir to combine and allow it to heat through. Top with desired garnishes and serve with rice or noodles.
Storage
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftovers do freeze well. Leftovers are also great in lettuce wraps.

3-Quart Stainless Steel Sauté Pan– The same size as pictured in this recipe. 8-inch Chef’s Knife– This is the one I have, I love it. Cutting Boards- I love having assorted sizes. Rubbermaid Containers with lids– I always use these to combine my corn starch + cold water. Better Than Bouillon– This is what I always use for broth in my recipes. It takes very little space and makes it easy to measure out customized amounts of broth.
