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 1/4 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 really good! We doubled the sauce part only because I made too many noodles (wide egg noodles) and worked great! Even my 2 year old liked it!! Will be a meal in the weekly mixer!! thanks so much!!
love your recipes, haven’t tried the garlic beef and broccoli, can I substitute chicken or shrimp? thank you
Yes, you can substitute it for the chicken and shrimp. Enjoy!
This was awesome the first time I made the recipe (exactly as noted in the original recipe.)
Since then, I’ve made a few adaptions – a bit less sugar, and a couple of times we didn’t have broccoli on hand, so I used bok choy and on another occasion, arugula. (Stir-fried the bok choy & arugula in lieu of boiling with the noodles.) Once we were out of red pepper flakes (how could THAT happen!) but we did have a hot pepper sesame oil on hand that gave it a similar kick. We’ve also made it with egg noodles as well as rice noodles, and either taste good. Flank steak not available? Any meat you’d use for a stir-fry works, too.
It’s very easy to make, and it’s very tasty! I’m not fond of people who change the recipe and then complain about the results, but I’ve found this recipe is very adaptable and still comes out yummy!
Delicious! I made a half-recipe, used a little less brown sugar, fresh ginger instead of dried, and blanched my broccoli for two’ish minutes apart from the noodles (I used rice noodles). I also used round steak instead of the more expensive flank. This recipe will go on the short list – we loved it!
Had to toss the entire pan. Not sure where I went wrong but the corn starch flavor was super strong. Wanted to bring to work, but will have to try again.
Do you use egg noodles or rice noodles?
You have 2 different noodles stated to use.
Either one tastes great! It is more of a preference. I prefer the egg noodles.
Just made this recipe and it was amazing! Thank you for sharing!!!
I cook often and well, but this is the first time my husband has told me the recipe is perfect after the first bite! I am vegetarian so I did have to tweak the recipe by substituting Gardein Beefless Tips for the meat and vegan hoisin sauce, and used egg noodles but otherwise kept to the ingredients list. If switching to this version, saute the mushrooms first and add in the beefless tips and garlic in the last 2 minutes. The tips will cook as you stir everything together. Thank you for a great recipe!
Do you cook the steak whole or sliced
I cook the steak sliced. Hope that helps!
I just made this dish for the first time and it turned out delicious and super easy. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Looks delicious and can’t wait to try it but am wondering how many does this feed?
This will feed 4 to 6 people. Hope that helps! Enjoy!
I was just reading through the comments. SMH. You know I have made MANY of your dishes and EVERY SINGLE ONE IS AMAZING!!!! Thank you so much for your blog. You have made me a much better cook. ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
I was surprised to find that this was quite sweet. Rather than the salty taste of “beef-and-broccoli”, the hoisin and sugar were a bit too much for me. Definitely an Asian-fusion type of dish that leans towards the non-Asian half of flavor!
Just getting started, the recipes sound delicious
Although the taste of the final product was well-balanced, well-seasoned, and overall very flavorful, the recipe did not turn out nearly the same as I expected it to texturally speaking. The broccoli was too soft after boiling for only a few minutes with the noodles, and when added to the pan they disintegrated over medium-high heat within a matter of less than a minute. A high heat cooking oil might be a better choice here, such as sesame oil or any other neutral flavored high heat oils. Additionally, the recipe calls for wide rice noodles and from the looks of the picture, wide lo mein noodles are what was actually used. I give this recipe three stars because of great flavor (make sure to use the best beef loin flank you can find) but the recipe definitely needs some major tweaking for anyone making this dish to end up with anything that closely resembles the picture. P.S. make sure to do this recipe in a wok or a large skillet/frying pan with high sides!!
Hi Alyssa,
Would like to try this recipe. At what temperature and for how long approx are you cooking the meat? Looks delish!
When cooking the steak I like to cook until it is no longer pink. I cook it on medium-high heat for about 8-10 minutes depending on how thick my steak is. I would make sure that it is cooked through at the temperature you prefer. XOXO
Hi Alyssa
Just wanted to let you know I made this dish for my husband and myself tonight, my first recipe of your ;-), and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was very good. The supermarket I found myself in didn’t carry rice noodles so I just went with some pappardelle pasta which worked just fine. Look forward to trying some of your other recipes. Thanks!
Did you use fresh or canned mushrooms? They look fresh but they’d never cook in just 1 minute!
This really looks good and I wanna try it!
I love your recipes. I wish you had the nutritional values on the recipes
It would be fun to try these
