Ingredients
  

Meat & Peppers:

  • 16 ounce ground beef (85/15)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
  • 30 gram green onion diced
  • 2 medium green bell pepper sliced in half
  • 8 large egg

Korean BBQ Sauce:

  • cup sugar-free apricot preserves such as Polaner's
  • 1 ½ tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon low-carb ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or coconut aminos

Instructions
 

  • Start by browning the ground beef. Place a pan over medium-high heat and add the beef once hot. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Once browned, add in the garlic and ginger and mix well, breaking up the beef.
  • Push the beef mixture to one side of the pan. Add sliced green onions and let fry for a minute or two. Mix everything together and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350F. In a small saucepan, combine sugar-free apricot preserves, rice wine vinegar, reduced-sugar ketchup, chile paste, and soy sauce (or coconut aminos). Note: Feel free to add some extra chile flakes for a spicier dish.
  • Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue stirring and reduce until slightly thickened.
  • Add half of the sauce to the ground beef mixture and mix together well.
  • Slice the bell peppers in half vertically (including the stems) and deseed. Stuff with the ground beef mixture and place on a cookie sheet with a Silpat.
  • Bake for about 12–15 minutes.
  • Begin frying the eggs one or two at a time. Alternatively, they can be cooked all at once, but they will need to be cut up at the end. Each bell pepper half should have two fried eggs to accompany it.
  • Once the peppers are done, brush them with the extra sauce, serve over the eggs, and enjoy!
