Cook the rice or base:

• Prepare your rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice according to package directions. Keep warm.

Brown the beef:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef (and oil if needed).

• Cook until fully browned, about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

Make it garlicky and buttery:

• Reduce heat to medium. Push beef to one side of the skillet.

• Add butter and minced garlic to the empty side. Sauté garlic for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.

• Mix garlic and butter into the beef. Stir in soy sauce, Worcestershire, black pepper, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 1–2 minutes.

Assemble the bowls:

• Divide rice among 4 bowls.

• Top with garlic butter beef, broccoli, carrot, and cucumber or greens.

• Add a soft-boiled or fried egg on top if desired.

• Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, or a drizzle of sriracha for extra flavor.
