Simple Beef and Broccoli

The other week I bought a huge bag of precut broccoli florets from Costco.  Chopped up broccoli is something I like to have on hand with the busy months of spring.  Easy to whip up a quick side dish of broccoli for dinner or throw together a broccoli salad to take on a picnic.  Being the wife of a beef producer, something else we tend to have on hand (and in excess) is round steak and sirloin steak.  Late one afternoon with no dinner plans in mind but a fridge of precut broccoli and a freezer full of beef I decided to attempt a Chinese dish at home.  It was of great success, Yum!  I cut the steak into 3″ strips, threw some ingredients together to make a marinade, stir fried it all together and ended up with a delicious meal.   This Beef and Broccoli dish is a easy to make and full of flavor!  I foresee a Costco stop in the near future for some more broccoli. 🙂

  1. This looks really delicious, Shelby! I have made something similar to this as a slow cooker, and I just throw in the round steak with a cup or two of beef broth, minced garlic, soy, and ginger – another variation for this recipe 🙂
