Instructions

Cook the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
Prepare the Sauce: Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes. Pour the sauce over the beef and stir to coat evenly.
Simmer and Serve: Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Remove from heat. Serve the beef over bowls of warm cooked rice. Top with shredded carrots, steamed broccoli, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds.

Notes

You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
Add kimchi or a fried egg on top for extra flavor.
Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.
