Teriyaki Beef Stir Fry with Broccoli and Brown Rice
Tips for Experienced Cooks
For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and a bit of brown sugar for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This not only tenderizes the beef but also infuses it with a deeper flavor. When stir-frying the vegetables, consider adding a splash of sesame oil towards the end for a nutty aroma. Don't hesitate to include other vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas for a more colorful and nutritious dish.
Step 1: Stir-fry the beef
In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Add the beef slices and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
- 2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Beef slices
Step 2: Stir-fry the broccoli
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender.

Step 3: Combine the beef and broccoli
Return the beef to the skillet and pour in the teriyaki sauce. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
