Chef's Note

This recipe is perfect for using leftover beef from a previous dinner. For the best flavor, slice the beef against the grain before reheating. If you don't have gochujang, substitute with 1/2 tsp sriracha mixed with 1/2 tsp miso paste for a similar umami-spicy profile.

Ingredients
  • 4 oz leftover cooked beef (sirloin or flank steak)

  • 3/4 cup cooked brown rice

  • 1/3 cup carrots

  • 1/2 medium bell pepper

  • 1/2 cup broccoli florets

  • 2 stalks green onions

  • 2 cloves garlic

  • 1 tsp fresh ginger

  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

  • 2 tsp sesame oil

  • 1 tsp honey

  • 1 tsp rice vinegar

  • 1 tsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)

  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 large egg

Instructions
  • 1

    Slice the leftover beef into thin strips and set aside.

  • 2

    Julienne the carrots and bell pepper. Cut broccoli into small florets. Slice green onions, separating white and green parts. Mince the garlic and ginger.

  • 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp honey, 1 tsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp gochujang to make the sauce.

  • 4

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the white parts of green onions, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp minced ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  • 5

    Add carrots, bell pepper, and broccoli to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables begin to soften but remain crisp.

  • 6

    Add the sliced beef to the pan and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes to reheat thoroughly.

  • 7

    Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables, tossing to coat evenly. Cook for another minute.

  • 8

    In a separate small non-stick pan, fry 1 egg sunny-side up until whites are set but yolk remains runny, about 3 minutes.

  • 9

    Reheat 3/4 cup cooked brown rice in the microwave for 1 minute.

  • 10

    To assemble the bowl: place the rice at the bottom, top with the beef and vegetable mixture, and crown with the fried egg.

  • 11

    Garnish with the green parts of green onions and 1 tsp sesame seeds.

  • 12

    Let the egg yolk break over the bowl when eating to create a rich sauce that brings everything together.
