Brown your ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain and rinse (optional). While your meat is browning, mix all of the sauce ingredients together and mix well. Set aside while your meat is browning. After your ground beef has browned, add the sauce to your meat. Mix well. Let the sauce simmer and reduce for 10-15 minutes. (I let mine simmer on a medium-low setting, adjust the heat as needed). Serve over rice and top with chopped green onions.
