Beef & Broccoli

Recipe by: Ryann

Beef and broccoli is my ultimate comfort meal. It's incredibly easy to whip up and prep in bigger batches for future meals. I honestly prefer this recipe compared to my local restaurant options!

Ingredients:

Beef Marinade:

  • 1 pound of flank steak

  • 5g of cornstarch

  • 5g of lite soy sauce (or coconut aminos for less sodium)

  • 3g of baking soda

  • 5g of ginger (peeled)

  • 5g of garlic

  • 5g of avocado oil

Sauce and Broccoli:

  • 10oz of beef bone broth

  • 10g of lite soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

  • 10g of brown sugar

  • 5g of toasted sesame oil

  • 5g of ginger (peeled)

  • 5g of garlic

  • White pepper to taste

  • 5g of avocado oil

  • 100g of broccoli

  • 10g of cornstarch

Optional Toppings:

  • Green onions

  • Sesame seeds

Instructions:

  1. Slice flank steak thinly against the grain (freeze 30 minutes first for easier slicing).

  2. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, oil, baking soda, cornstarch, garlic, and ginger. Add steak and marinate 30 minutes to 6 hours.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and white pepper to taste.

  4. Heat avocado oil in a pan or wok over high heat. Add beef in a single layer without overcrowding and cook about 3 minutes before stirring to cook through. Remove to a plate.

  5. In the same pan, sauté garlic and ginger. Add bone broth to scrape up browned bits, then stir in broccoli. Pour in the sauce and bring to a boil.

  6. Mix cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry, then add to the pan. Simmer until thickened. Return beef to the pan and toss to coat.

  7. Serve over white rice with desired toppings.
