Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece ginger, minced
  • 3 tbsp sweet Thai chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (e.g., grapeseed)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Cooked white rice, for serving
  • Optional: fried egg, steamed/charred veggies, sesame seeds, green onions, chili oil

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; sauté onion, garlic, and ginger for 2–3 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Add ground beef; cook, breaking it up, until browned and crispy, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together chili sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and sriracha. Pour the sauce over the beef.
  4. Cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce reduces and the beef caramelizes.
  5. Drizzle in sesame oil, stir to combine, and remove from heat.
  6. Serve over a bowl of steamed white rice, topped with optional garnishes like a fried egg, veggies, green onions, sesame seeds, or chili oil.

Notes

  • Crisping the beef enhances texture and flavor—don’t skip this step.
  • Customize with toppings like kimchi, cucumber, or pickled radish for contrast.
  • Make it a meal prep staple by doubling the beef and storing portions with rice.
  • Great with brown rice or quinoa as a base for a healthier twist.
