Step-by-Step Instructions

Cook your choice of rice according to package instructions, typically simmering for about 15-20 minutes until tender.
In a large skillet, brown the lean ground beef over medium-high heat for approximately 5-7 minutes.
Once browned, reduce the heat and add garlic powder and soy sauce, stirring for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle the hot honey over the beef, mixing well, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Steam the broccoli in a separate pot for about 5 minutes until bright green and tender.
Assemble the bowls with cooked rice, topped with the ground beef and steamed broccoli.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds; add sriracha if desired.
