Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef ( or use half ground beef and ground pork)
5 -6 large garlic cloves, chopped ( not minced the more garlic, the better!)
1/4 teaspoon ginger powder or 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons oil ( not olive oil)
1 red bell peppers, cut into about 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups small broccoli florets
3 cups cold cooked white rice
3 -4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
4 green onions, chopped
salt and pepper (optional)
Directions:
In a wok or a large skillet brown the ground beef with garlic and ginger over medium heat (about 10 minutes) breaking up into small pieces; drain the fat, then transfer to a bowl.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet over medium-high eat until hot.
Add in bell pepper and pea pods; cook for 3 minutes or until bell pepper is crisp-tender, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the cold cooked rice, soy sauce and sesame oil.
Return the cooked ground beef back to the skillet; toss to combine and heat though, then stir in the chopped green onions.
Season with salt and pepper and more soy sauce if desired.
