Ground Beef and Rice Dinner

Ground Beef and Rice skillet dinner is an easy and tasty recipe which you can make in a jiffy. Its super simple and made with pantry staple ingredients.

Adding Korean Gochujang Paste is totally optional. If you want an Asian glaze to your Ground Beef, you can add it.

Gochujang Paste is a mildly spicy chili paste which is heavily used in Korean recipes. It balances out the sweetness of honey which is typically used in Korean recipes.

Ground Beef and Rice Bowls

This gets ready in just 20 min from scratch and is a quick and easy weeknight dinner which kids love!

Ingredients

  • Ground Beef
  • Gochujang Paste
  • Brown Sugar
  • Soy Sauce
  • Sesame Oil
  • Garlic & Ginger (minced)
  • Red Pepper Flakes
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Cooked Rice (to serve)
  • Sesame Seeds & Chopped Green Onions (for garnish)

See recipe card for quantities.

How to make Korean Ground Beef and Rice Bowls

Heat Sesame Oil in a Cast Iron skillet.

As the oil shimmers, add the Ground Beef, minced ginger and garlic.

Cook for 2-3 min or until beef is no longer pink.

In a mixing jar, combine Soy Sauce, Brown Sugar, Gochujang Paste, Red Pepper Flakes, Salt & Pepper.

Whisk until combined.

Pour over the Ground Beef and simmer for 2-3 min.

Serve over hot rice

Garnish with toasted Sesame Seeds & Green Onions.

Substitutions

  • Ketchup - in a pinch Ketchup is the best alternative to Gochujang Paste. Its got a puckering sweet and sour taste to it, although its not as spicy, so if using Ketchup you might want to reduce the amount of Brown Sugar by half.
  • Dates and Spices - replace Gochujang Paste with a paste made with pitted Medjool dates and spices - red pepper flakes. This sweet and spicy sauce is the closest and non allergic replacement for Gochujang Paste.
  • Tamari - You can replace Soy Sauce with Tamari.
  • Chicken - you can replace Ground Beef with Ground Chicken or Ground Turkey.

Cooking Variations

Here are some exciting cooking variations to this Ground Beef and Rice Bowls.

  • Spicy - If you like it spicy, you can add more of Red Pepper Flakes.
  • Thai - to give this a Thai flavor, replace Gochujang paste with Thai Red Curry Paste. Also use Coconut Sugar and Coconut Milk to cook the Ground Beef. Garnish with toasted Peanuts.
  • Mexican - add Guacamole, Ground Cumin and Oregano to this same recipe to give it a Mexican flair.

How to store Leftover Ground Beef and Rice

Store: Store leftover cooked Ground Beef in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about a week.

How to reheat: You can reheat Ground Beef and Rice in a microwave safe bowl. Reheat for 3-4 minutes or until heated through. You can also reheat food in the air fryer.

Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave at full power before serving!

Can I make Ground Beef and Rice in Instant Pot?

Yes of course! You can cook rice in the instant pot easily. And you can cook Korean Ground beef as well.

STEP 1: Put Instant Pot to saute mode. Heat sesame oil and cook the Ground beef with minced garlic and ginger until it browns.
