Instructions
For Korean Bison:
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, crushed red pepper flakes, and ginger.
- Heat avocado oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add chopped onion and garlic to the pan and stir constantly until fragrant, for about 1 minute.
- Add ground bison and cook until almost browned, for 3 to 4 minutes, crumbling the meat as you cook. Thoroughly drain excess fat and juice from the pan (to avoid watery sauce).
- Stir in soy sauce mixture and green onions until well combined. Let it simmer until heated through for about 2 minutes.
- If you want a thicker sauce, in a small bowl, make a quick slurry with 1/2 to 1 tsp cornstarch and 1-2 tbsp water. Pour it into the pan and stir until sauce thickens.
For Broccoli (saute or roast):
- Saute broccoli florets with oil, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper over medium high heat for 5 minutes. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, or until bright green and tender.
- Or roast broccoli with oil, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper in 425° oven for 15 to 20 minutes until tender.
For Serving:
- Serve Korean Bison and broccoli in a bowl on top of white rice. Add kimchi for extra crunch and probiotic boost!
