Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs ground sirloin (90/10)
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cups fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
• Optional: sliced green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil until the sugar is mostly dissolved. Set aside.
2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground sirloin and cook, breaking it apart into crumbles with a wooden spoon, until nicely browned and mostly cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
3. Add the diced onion to the browned meat and sauté until the onion softens, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for another 30 to 60 seconds until highly fragrant.
5. Add the green beans to the skillet. Toss to combine with the meat and aromatics, cooking for 3-4 minutes until the beans are bright green and tender-crisp.
6. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. The sauce will reduce slightly and create a beautiful glaze over the meat and beans.
7. Remove from heat and serve immediately over rice or noodles, garnished with fresh green onions and sesame seeds.
