Ingredients
-
1 lb (450g) thinly sliced Beef sirloin or flank steak
-
2 cups Broccoli florets
-
1/2 cup Low-sodium soy sauce
-
1/4 cup Brown sugar
-
3 cloves, minced Garlic
-
1 teaspoon, grated Fresh ginger
-
1 cup Beef broth
-
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
-
2 tablespoons Water
-
(optional, for garnish) Sesame seeds
-
for serving Cooked rice or noodles
Directions
- In the Instant Pot, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and beef broth.
- Add the thinly sliced beef to the Instant Pot and toss to coat it in the sauce.
- Close the Instant Pot lid and set the valve to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
- While the beef is cooking, blanch the broccoli florets in boiling water for 2 minutes, then transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
- Once the cooking time is up, allow for a natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then carefully do a quick release.
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the Instant Pot to thicken the sauce.
- Add the blanched broccoli to the Instant Pot and stir to combine. Let it sit for a couple of minutes for the broccoli to warm through.
- Serve the beef and broccoli over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
