Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
Wash and dry all produce. - To a medium pot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
To the boiling water, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 12-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch thick half moons.
- Thinly slice green onions, keeping greens and whites separate.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Cut broccoli into 1-inch pieces.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- To a large bowl, add beef, garlic, panko, half the sesame seeds, half the garlic salt and green onion whites. Season with pepper, then combine. Roll mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs.
- On the prepared baking sheet, arrange meatballs. Roast in the bottom of the oven for 10 - 12 min or until browned and cooked through.**
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add broccoli, carrots, and 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water. Season with remaining garlic salt. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally until veggies are tender-crisp and liquid has absorbed.
- Transfer Veggies to a plate.
- Reheat the same pan over medium. Add hoisin, brown sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter.
- Cook, stirring often until glaze is warm and butter melts. (TIP: If glaze thickens too quickly, add water, 1 tbsp at a time.)
- Add meatballs to pan with glaze. Stir to coat.
- Fluff rice with fork. Stir in remaining sesame seeds.
- Divide rice between plates.
- Top with veggies and meatballs.
- Spoon any sauce in the pan overtop.
- Sprinkle remaining green onions overtop.
