Preparation
1
Prepare and cook the rice: In the sink, place the rice in a strainer and rinse it well. In a pot, add the brown rice, water (1 1/2 cup, 3 cup, 4 1/2 cups), salt (1/8 tsp, 1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp) and pepper (1 pinch, 1/8 tsp, 1/4 tsp) and stir. Bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook 25 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.
2
Preparation: wash and dry the vegetables. Cut the broccoli* in bite size florets. Cut the bell pepper in 1/2 cm thick slices. Cut the ends of the green beans.
*Note: Get the stink outta here! Broccoli can have a strong smell. To minimize the smell, open the bag under running cold water. This will minimize the smell and rinse your broccoli at the same time.
3
Cook the beef: Cut the teriyaki marinated beef sirloin in 1/2 cm slices. In a large pan, add the oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp, 1 1/2 tsp) and the beef slices. Salt the beef (1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp, 3/4 tsp). Cook on medium heat until fully cooked – about 7 minutes. Place the cooked beef in a bowl and set aside.
Note: Ensure the beef is cooked to a minimal internal temperature of 145F.
4
Prepare the stir fry: In the same pan you cooked the beef, add oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp, 1 1/2 tsp), bell peppers. Cook on medium heat for about 3 minutes. Add the teriyaki stir fry sauce, the broccoli. Cook on medium/high heat for about 2 minutes. Add the green beans and cook a additional 2 to 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens and the vegetables are cooked but still crunchy. Add the cooked beef and combine.
5
Prepare the garnish, assemble and serve: Separate the leaves of the cilantro.
Serve in individual plates by placing the rice at the bottom of the plate and top it with the vegetables and beef. Garnish with cilantro.
