If you’re not grain-free and want some more carbs, feel free to serve this over some white rice. For more protein, add some scrambled eggs to the stir fry to make it more reminiscent of fried rice. Drizzle some toasted sesame oil on top, or sprinkle it with red pepper flakes for more heat. Try garnishing it with sesame seeds, chopped bell peppers, or scallions for some more crunch.
And if you don’t have any ground beef on hand, ground pork or ground chicken also work. This yummy Asian inspired recipe is versatile!
