Sesame Soy Beef Bowls

with Carrots, Buttery Rice & Sriracha Mayo

Bowls are way past “having a moment.” They’ve become a pillar of our lunches and dinners. Why? It’s simple: everything’s better in a bowl! (Nice knowing you, plates.) But seriously, the customizable combo of carbs, protein, veggies, and a drizzle of delicious sauce cannot be denied. True to form, this rendition is fully loaded. Buttery rice is topped with beef that’s glazed in a sweet and savory sesame-soy sauce, plus roasted carrots and a drizzle of creamy, spicy sriracha mayo. One bite will have you totally bowled over.

Instructions

4 steps
  1. 1

    Wash and dry produce.

    In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

    Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with sriracha to taste. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat half the sesame oil (you’ll use the rest in the next step) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add carrots and scallion whites; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar.

    Transfer to a second small bowl and cover to keep warm.

  3. 3

    Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for carrots over medium high heat. Add beef* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 3-5 minutes. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.

    Stir in sweet soy glaze, half the vinegar (all for 4 servings), and remaining sesame oil. Bring to a simmer and cook until sauce has thickened and beef is cooked through, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  4. 4

    Fluff rice with a fork and stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings); season with salt and pepper.

    Divide rice between bowls; top with carrots and sesame soy beef. Drizzle with sriracha mayo and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve.
