Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup reduced sodium soy sauce (or gluten-free tamari)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 1-inch piece fresh ginger (peeled and grated)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ½ tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 pound ground beef (93% lean )

Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch. Set aside.

- Pour in the reserved sauce, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute. Add the broccoli and cook for 1 more minute.
- Divide mixture evenly among 4 plates or shallow bowls, layering rice first, if using.
- Top each with sesame seeds and scallions.

Notes
* To blanch the broccoli- bring a big pot of water to boil. Drop the florets into the water and cook for two to three minutes until bright green and crisp-tender. Immediately drain in a colander and put in an ice bath (a large bowl filled with ice water), which will stop the cooking process. Once the broccoli is cool, drain in the colander again.
