20 Minutes Korean ground Beef recipe served over rice (or in lettuce leaves)

Korean Beef is one of our favorite dinner recipes, especially on a busy week day or when I need to use vegetables grown in our garden before it goes bad.

Usually a Korean Beef recipe only calls for Red Chili Flakes and no Bell Peppers, but I simply love the addition of a Bell Pepper. So yes, again I am going a little of course with the recipe.

Although we do not grow Red Bell Peppers ourselves (only Green), I had one leftover from a previous dish I made earlier the week.

We also have an abundance of Spring Onions, which we of course love and whenever I have these two ingredients – the Bell Pepper and Spring Onions – my first choice for a delicious dinner is always Korean Beef. And the dish takes only 20 minutes, from prepping to serving !

Now that’s exactly my kind of dinner. We normally have the Korean Beef served over rice, but it is equally delicious, and less carbs, served in lettuce leaves. The latter is a favorite to serve for lunch and is filling enough to get us through to dinner time.

Ingredients you might already have on hand and 20 minutes will have dinner on the table in record time !
