Step-By-Step Directions:
-
Brown the beef: Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until fully browned, breaking it apart as it cooks, then drain any excess grease.
-
Sauté vegetables: Add the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables become softened and tender.
-
Season: Stir in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic powder, ground ginger, and optional red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Combine with rice: Add the cooked rice directly to the skillet and stir thoroughly to coat all ingredients in the sauce and heat the rice through.
-
Garnish and serve: Remove from the heat, sprinkle with sliced green onions, and serve warm.
