Freezer Friendly AND can be ready in 30 minutes. Sheet Pan Beef & Broccoli is made with beef stew meat or flank steak, broccoli florets seasoned with a sweetened sauce of soy sauce, honey, sesame oil & spices. So easy but so tasty!
Ingredients
Beef: this can be a simple economical cut such as stew meat. Other popular options are flank steak and sirloin steak. All cut thin & in bite sized pieces.
Broccoli: cut into bite-sized pieces. 3-4 cups of broccoli is great.
Soy Sauce: the recipe calls for the low sodium kind. I feel the regular soy sauce is too salty, however you could use either variety.
Honey: we used good quality, local, Highlandville Honey in this recipe. Don’t have honey on hand? Use brown sugar.
Sesame Oil: I use a toasted sesame oil, but really any kind will work.
Seasonings: minced garlic, ground ginger, pepper, sesame seeds and optional red pepper flakes.
Freezer Friendly + 30 Minute Meal
To prep & freeze for a busy evening just follow the instructions (also below): Add the beef & broccoli to a gallon sized freezer bag. Mix the sauce in a bowl & add to the freezer bag. Seal the bag well and mix sauce into the beef/broccoli with hands. To cook: thaw in fridge for 24 hours, then cook as indicated above.
Double & freeze a batch or prepare for a new mom! I will be making this to put in the freezer for postpartum.
Pair this with a side of rice
Rice would be the perfect side to this. Our easy instapot rice recipe is linked from our instagram page.
Make the gravy to top the rice: if you’d like to make a thickened sauce for topping the beef/broccoli or a side like rice- reserve 1/4 cup of the sauce mix. Add to a small pot on medium high heat. Also add 2tbsp flour/corn starch and 1/2 cup water. Stir and let simmer until thickened to gravy consistency. Add pepper or sweetener (honey/brown sugar) to taste.
