Sizzling Asian Beef Bowls with Edamame and Pickled Red Onions

Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup shelled edamame, thawed
- 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup pickled red onions
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Prepare the Sauce
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, orange juice, brown sugar, sweet chili sauce, toasted sesame oil, and cornstarch. Whisk together until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Set aside.

2. Cook the Beef
Heat 1 tablespoon of canola or vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it is browned and cooked through.

3. Add Aromatics
Reduce heat to medium. Add the minced garlic to the beef and stir for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Incorporate the Sauce
Pour the prepared sauce over the browned beef, stirring well to coat. Let the mixture simmer for about 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.

5. Prepare the Sides
In another pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the edamame and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until warmed through.

6. Assemble the Bowls
Divide the cottage cheese equally among four serving bowls. Layer with the cooked beef mixture, followed by the edamame, cucumber slices, and pickled red onions.

7. Garnish and Serve
Top each bowl with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately for a warm, vibrant dinner experience.
