Beef and Broccoli Recipe

Spread the love

We all really love Chinese food. In particular we love Beef and Broccoli or even Chicken and Broccoli.

Delicious Beef and Broccoli on OhayoOkasan.com #recipe

Our local buffet does a good job at making it, but sadly some of the actual non-buffet Chinese places here in town suck at it. Still, we can’t really afford the buffet or take-out Chinese all that often. So I needed to find a way to have what we love, but here at home!

 

So I present to you, my recipe for Chinese Beef and Broccoli!!

I make sure to cook for about 10. It gives everyone dinner and allows for left overs. We have a fair bit of mouths to feed, plus it’s so good the kids like extra!

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound thin cut Steak, sliced in to small strips.
  • 1 tsp Ground ginger.
  • 1 tsp Onion powder or minced onion. More to taste if you all really like onion.
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder. Not garlic salt, unless you prefer it.
  • 4 Tbsp Soy Sauce. I use low sodium.
  • 2 Tbsp Sugar.
  • 1 1/2 pounds Broccoli, cut in to small pieces, or one 14 ounce bag of frozen broccoli florets.
  • 1 1/4 cup Beef Stock
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 4 Tbsp corn starch.
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil (to cook with, you may need more depending on how you like to cook things?)
  • Large Wok or frying pan.

I’ve made this with gluten free soy sauce, and corn starch with excellent results as well!

Directions:

  1. Mix ginger, onion powder, garlic powder, soy sauce, sugar and 1/4 cup Beef stock together. Mix beef into this sauce and allow to sit while you work on your broccoli.
  2. Heat up 2 Tbsp of the olive oil in your Wok/frying pan.
  3. Cook your broccoli until it is cooked through and has a little bit of cooked crispness like in this picture.
  4. Set the broccoli aside and warm up the last 2 Tbsp of olive oil.
  5. Combine 1 cup beef stock with 1 cup cold water, add in corn starch and let sit after all mixed.
  6. Cook up your marinated steak until fully cooked.
  7. Add the broccoli to the beef and stir together. Add in your stock/water/corn starch mixture and cook on medium-high until it boils for about a minute. Make sure to stir often.
  8. Turn the heat down to low and allow to simmer until sauce thickens.

This is awesome served with noodles or over steamed rice. I have a rice cooker that I love (though it has seen far far better days and needs replaced!) and I love having this over steamed rice.

There you have it! You can easily use thin sliced and cut up chicken to make this into chicken and broccoli. Just replace the beef stock with chicken stock and you’ve got the same thing just different meat! It’s fantastic both ways.

I hope you enjoy!

  16. Broccoli is my favorite beef is not. Hope I may be able to use your recipe with chicken than beef. Did you ever tried that?

    1. Yes, I even included how to do that. Just use chicken stock instead of the beef stock when you do chicken. It’s great both ways! 😀

    1. Yes.
      As mentioned in the post to use chicken instead just substitute out chicken for beef and use chicken stock instead of beef stock. 🙂

  26. I seen this a few days ago and then last night we made it well my daughter did most of it I just did the beef. It was awesome thank you so much. One thing I did a little different is not cook the broccoli to long but that is because hubby isn’t a fan of cooked broccoli so I just did it enough to make it a little softer. Anyways I loved it I wanted to say thank you

    1. I am so glad it was well received! Some people do like the broccoli a bit firmer and that’s great too! Whichever one works for your family is of course the way to go. Thanks for letting me know it was liked!
