Easy Korean Ground Beef Recipe

This easy dinner is one of my go-to recipes, because it uses a handful of ingredients I keep in my fridge and comes together in under 15 minutes. This dinner has a lot of similar flavors to Korean Beef Bulgogi, but it's way quicker to make!

Ingredients Needed –

*you can find exact measurements in the printable recipe below

• Lean Ground Beef – you could also use ground turkey for a leaner option!
• Garlic
• Ginger – I like to use the fresh ginger in the tubes
• Sesame Oil – I use light sesame oil, but dark would work too
• Brown Sugar – gives the dish it's signature sweetness
• Soy Sauce – use low sodium soy sauce if desired
• Chili Garlic Sauce – like Huy Fong
• Green Onions

How To Make Korean Ground Beef

• Start by browning your lean ground beef in a skillet with garlic and ginger.
• Drain any excess fat and then return to the stove top.
• Season with a little sesame oil, brown sugar, soy sauce and chili garlic sauce (or Sriracha if desired).

We love to serve this deliciously seasoned ground beef right on top of a bed of hot rice.

To make it a full meal – I'll add sliced cucumbers and matchstick carrots alongside the ground beef and rice.

How Can I Make this Ground Beef Recipe Low Carb?

Believe it or not, this Korean Ground Beef Recipe can easily be converted to a low carb meal!

• Swap out the brown sugar for a low carb brown sugar sweetener.
• Serve the ground beef over a bed of hot cauliflower rice instead of regular rice.
• Try serving the Korean Ground Beef mixture in a lettuce wrap for a fun taco-inspired dish!

This super easy ground beef recipe comes together in less than 15 minutes with ingredients that you probably already have on hand.

PRO TIP: start cooking the rice before I even start browning the beef because it cooks that fast! If you're using minute rice, you'll be sitting down to eat dinner even quicker!

What To Serve With Korean Ground Beef?

Try pairing this easy dish with a side of Egg Drop Soup or these Crispy Chicken Egg Rolls.

My kids went nuts for this super quick dinner recipe. It was perfect for our busy weeknight when I had to run two kids to gymnastics, one to mountain bike practice and help the other with a school project.
