Description

Easy Beef and Broccoli is a quick, healthy, and flavorful stir-fry dish with tender flank steak, crisp broccoli, and a savory-sweet sauce, ready in just 15 minutes.


Ingredients

⅔ cup reduced sodium soy sauce

½ cup chicken stock

¼ cup honey

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon Sriracha (or more to taste)

1 teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced across the grain

1 head broccoli, cut into florets


Instructions

  1. Whisk together soy sauce, chicken stock, honey, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, sesame oil, cornstarch, Sriracha, ginger, red pepper flakes, and ¼ cup water in a bowl; set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook 3–4 minutes, flipping once, until browned.
  3. Add broccoli and soy sauce mixture to the skillet. Cook 3–4 minutes until broccoli is tender and sauce thickens.

Substitute flank steak with sirloin or skirt steak.

Use tamari for gluten-free soy sauce alternative.

Add bell peppers or snap peas for extra veggies.

Adjust Sriracha to control spice level.
