INGREDIENTS:

1 lb ground beef

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/3 cup tamari or soy sauce

1/4 cup beef broth

2 teaspoons rice vinegar

2 tablespoons brown sugar

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, broth, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Set aside.

In a large skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat, seasoning with salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to medium-low and add garlic and ginger to pan. Let cook until fragrant, just 2-3 minutes.
