I seriously cannot get enough of these juicy steak bites with crispy broccoli, in delicious stir fry sauce. Serve this beef and broccoli over rice for an easy, quick, dinner that the whole family will love.
The Stir Fry Sauce is So Good!
You guys, this sauce is to die for. It’s really that good. Made with soy sauce, chicken stock, brown sugar, cornstarch, garlic, ginger, crushed red pepper, and sesame oil, it has flavors galore. There’s a little heat, a little sweetness, a lot of savory elements… long story short, you’re gonna love it!
Beef: I used 2 pounds sirloin steak. Olive Oil: Canola oil or vegetable oil will also work. Broccoli Florets: About 10 cups cut into florets. You could also use frozen broccoli as well, but I would recommend blanching it quickly first and draining it well before adding it at the end. It won’t need to cook as long as fresh broccoli. Soy Sauce: I like to use low sodium soy sauce for this meal. You could also use coconut aminos. Chicken Stock: You may need to add more depending on how thick/thin you want the sauce. You could absolutely use beef broth (stock) as well, but I prefer chicken stoack kas it’s a milder flavor and you get a ton of flavor with the additional ingredients added. Brown Sugar: You’ll need light brown sugar for this recipe. You could also sub in darl brown sugar or honey. Cornstarch. This is for thickening up the sauce! For Seasoning: Minced garlic and fresh grated ginger. I like to buy the frozen cubes of garlic and ginger they sell at the supermarket so I always have it on-hand! Sesame Oil. This is a huge flavor-maker in this recipe and shouldn’t be subbed. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes: 1-2 teaspoons depending on how hot you like it. Garnish: Sesame seeds and chives.

Freeze the Steak
Freeze the Steak: Freeze steak for 30 minutes to make it easier to slice. Cut broccoli into florets and set aside. This is only if you don’t buy the steak pre-shaved.
Rice: We usually serve it over a plate of white or brown rice or any kind of grain like quinoa. Rice Noodles: Zucchini noodles would be good too if you want to be a little healthier. Other Vegetables: You don’t have to use just broccoli, peppers or carrots would be good too! Salad: A big, healthy salad goes with any meal, really.
Can I Freeze Extra Beef and Broccoli?
Sure. Put any leftovers in an airtight container and freeze for 2-3 months. Make sure to let them thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
