Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 large eggs
• 3 green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
• Cooked rice or noodles (optional, for serving)

How to Make Soy Glazed Beef with Egg

1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
2. Form the mixture into 4 evenly sized patties, about 1 inch thick.
3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F).
4. While the patties are cooking, prepare the eggs. In a separate pan, add a little oil and heat over medium. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
5. Once the patties are done, remove them from the skillet and drizzle with any remaining soy glaze from the pan.
6. To serve, place a beef patty on a plate, top it with a runny egg, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve with cooked rice or noodles if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure not to overmix the beef mixture to keep the patties juicy.
• For extra flavor, marinate the patties in the soy glaze for 30 minutes before cooking.
• Use a non-stick skillet or cast iron for the best sear on the patties.
• Adjust the cooking time for the eggs based on how runny you prefer the yolk.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
• Add finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms to the beef mixture for added nutrition and flavor.
• Spice things up by incorporating a teaspoon of sriracha or chili paste into the beef mixture for some heat.

What to Serve With It

• Steamed jasmine rice or sticky rice for a classic pairing.
• Sautéed bok choy or spinach for a fresh veggie side.
• Quick pickled cucumbers for a refreshing crunch.
• Noodles tossed in a light soy sauce dressing for a hearty option.
