Cooking Steps
- Cut carrot into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add carrots and half the sesame oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with pepper and half the garlic salt, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden-brown, 18-20 min.
- Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
- Thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green parts separate.
- Add peppers, zucchini and remaining sesame oil to another unlined baking sheet. Season with pepper and remaining garlic salt, then toss to combine.
- Roast in the top of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender-crisp, 18-20 min.
- Meanwhile, add mayo and gochujang to a small bowl, then stir to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) oil, then beef. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
- Carefully drain and discard all but 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) fat from the pan.
- Add Moo Shu Spice Blend, soy sauce and green onion whites to the pan, then stir to combine. (TIP: Add 1/4 tsp [1/2 tsp] sugar, if desired!)
- Season with pepper, to taste.
- Transfer carrots to the baking sheet with veggies, then toss to combine.
- Divide veggies between bowls. Top with beef.
- Dollop gochujang mayo over top.
- Sprinkle with remaining green onions.
If you've opted to get beef, cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the pork.**
