HEALTHY BEEF AND BROCCOLI
I’ll always have a soft spot for something that takes a bit more time and effort (like slow-simmered soups or stews, or a fancy dessert), but most days we’re eating meals that are fairly straight-forward and simple. That never (EVER!) means we sacrifice flavor, and this healthy beef and broccoli is one of those dynamite recipes that hits all my favorite criteria–fast, healthy, easy, and delicious. Thinly sliced beef gets dredged in a little bit of arrowroot (or cornstarch, if you’re not paleo/don’t have it), and a super-quick sear in the pan.
Paired with tender, delicious broccolini (or broccoli), and a three-ingredient sauce, the flavor combination is magic. I love when I can coax as much flavor as possible out of a short ingredient list. The beef stays tender, the broccolini is cooked just enough, and the savory sauce ties everything together. Serve this with a side of fresh pineapple, and some rice or cauliflower rice, and dinner is done!
HEALTHY BEEF AND BROCCOLI
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Yield: about 4 servings.
DESCRIPTION
A takeout favorite gets a healthy makeover! This dish is easily paleo or gluten free, and comes together in no time! (See notes for Paleo/Whole30 tips!)
INGREDIENTS
3/4lb. lean steak (such as top sirloin, or loin tip) thinly sliced
2 Tbsp arrowroot or cornstarch*
1lb. broccolini (or broccoli), cut into 2″ sections
1/2 cup low sodium gluten free tamari, coconut aminos, or soy sauce*
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 tsp fresh ginger, minced
1/2 tsp black pepper, plus more to taste
1/4-1/2 cup water, as desired
olive oil or coconut oil, for cooking
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a medium bowl, combine thinly sliced steak with arrowroot (or cornstarch) and a pinch of pepper. Toss to coat well.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add a few slices of steak (not touching each other) to the pan. Cook 60-90 seconds per side, then transfer to a clean plate or bowl. Repeat with remaining steak, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
- When all the steak is cooked, add broccoli to the pan (again, if the pan is a bit dry, add a bit more oil). Cook 4-5 minutes, or until crisp-tender (cook longer if you like your broccoli softer).
