Ingredients
  

Beef Base
  • 1 pound Lean Ground Beef Substitute with ground turkey or lentils for a lighter option.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Fresh minced garlic can enhance freshness.
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper Increase for added spice.
  • 2 tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce Swap for low sodium tamari to keep it gluten-free.
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha (optional) Tailor the amount to match your spice tolerance.
  • 2 tablespoons Sweet Chili Sauce Choose your favorite brand.
  • 1 Juice Lime Omit if a less tangy profile is preferred.
Vegetables
  • 4 cups Shredded Brussels Sprouts Using pre-shredded saves time.
  • 1 tablespoon Avocado Oil Substitute with vegetable or olive oil if desired.
Optional Garnish
  • Sesame Seeds Sprinkle on top for extra flavor and texture.

Equipment

  • Large skillet

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 pound of lean ground beef. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and no longer pink. Season with garlic powder, kosher salt, black pepper, and low sodium soy sauce. Mix in optional sriracha to taste.
  2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and pour in avocado oil. Add in shredded Brussels sprouts, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until tender and golden brown.
  3. Once Brussels sprouts are caramelized, return cooked ground beef to the skillet. Pour in sweet chili sauce and lime juice, stirring until well combined. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and serve warm. If desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds.
