Kittencal's Ground Beef Fried Rice

"A long time family favorite! --- you can substitute the broccoli florets for one 6-ounce package frozen pea pods if desired --- make certain the the cooked ground beef is very well browned and well drained, also make certain to use only *cold* cooked rice, cooking time does not include cooking the rice --- you will love this! :)"

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 pepper, cut into about 1/2-inch pieces

  • 3 -4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • salt and pepper (optional)

Directions

  • 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.
