What Beef is used for Beef and Broccoli?

I personally like to use Flank steak for my Broccoli and Beef, mainly because its already tender and so easy to cook and it takes little time. but the key to making any broccoli and beef is just thinly slicing the Steak of your choice and against the grain and you should be able to make a great meal.

Best Way to cook a Flank Steak

After seasoning with your favorite rub or marinde. Start by making slits along the top, about ¼ deep and an inch apart. This breaks up the muscle and makes it tender. The trick to cooking the steak is cooking it fast at a high heat. Flank steak gets chewier the longer its cooked. So, cooking it to a rare or medium rare is best. cook for about 3-4 minutes on the first side and finish with 2 minutes on the second side.

    This was very good. We felt it was a bit too sweet so I will personally leave the brown sugar out next time (hoisin is already sweet enough). I had ground beef to use up so that’s what I put in as well as adding onions. Great recipe for a fast meal!!

  2. This is a fantastic recipe! I thought I was eating in a fancy restaurant….it was that good! I used whole wheat egg noodles with great results.

  3. Can this be made with an instant pot? Or at least the beef and sauce part, with the noodles added last on Saute mode?

    Boiled the broccoli separately for just about a minute; chopped up the mushrooms and fried them off for a while separately from the meat. Very pleased with the final product – nicely balanced flavor with just a bit of heat.

  5. My husband said I outdid myself with this one. Said he could eat the whole thing himself. Thank you for this great recipe.

    Followed the recipe except for mushrooms because I didn’t have any. I did use ramen noodles as that is what I had on hand. It was delish. Will make again

    We have made this many times.

    We make the sauce first and put it on a pan on low heat and reduce so the sauce is thicker and cooled down by the time its ready to toss. Double up or triple the meat. Chop mushrooms to allow it to cook down better with steak.

    Fantastic. Everyone loved it. Leftovers, if there are any are a great lunch the next day. I’ve made it 3 times. Tonight will be #4

  9. This recipe sounds delicious.. Unfortunately, I don’t have sesame oil or hoisen sauce can I substitute or cook without it??
    Thank you, vivien

    Tried this yesterday, my very first homemade chinese-style recipe. Turned out great! Really love it! Added to my rotation list.
    Just one thing, I used canned mushrooms because there’s no way fresh ones will cook in just one minute. Was that what you used too?
