INGREDIENTS
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (omit for AIP)
1/3 c. coconut aminos
1/4 c. broth
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons coconut sugar (omit for whole30)
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon arrowroot starch
1 thumb ginger, grated
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 green onions, sliced into 1-inch slices
HOW TO MAKE MONGOLIAN GROUND BEEF
Step 1: Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until brown. Do not forget to season the beef with salt and pepper. When done, set the beef aside. Drain the grease but leave about 2 tbsp fat in the pan.
Step 2: Place the coconut aminos, broth, apple cider vinegar, coconut sugar, and arrowroot starch in another bowl. Stir until well combined, then set aside.
Step 3: Adjust the heat to low-medium. Add the garlic and ginger using the same pan and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until aromatic.
Step 4: Into the pan, pour the sauce. Stir and heat for about a minute or two until thick. Return the ground beef to the pan, stir well, and coat with the sauce. Add the green onions and continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes until soft.
Step 5: Serve the Mongolian Ground Beef alongside your favourite veggies or over cauliflower rice. Enjoy!
