Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil rice in salted water according to package directions, about 15 minutes. Keep warm.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk together soy sauce, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, and sesame oil in a small bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Toast panko in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, until light golden, 2–3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add 1 tbsp oil to the same skillet over medium-high. Cook ground beef, breaking apart with a spoon, until no pink remains, 5–6 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Pour sauce over beef and stir until everything is glossy and caramelized, about 1 minute.

  6. Step 6

    Push beef to the side of the skillet. Crack eggs into the open space and cook until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3–4 minutes.

  7. Step 7

    Divide rice between two bowls. Top each with half the beef and one egg.

  8. Step 8

    Sprinkle toasted panko and scallions over the top. Serve immediately.
