Servings: 4 people
Cost: $
Ingredients
- 2 lb top sirloin steak, thinly sliced into 2” strips
- 5 cup broccoli florets, chopped into bite-size pieces
- 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup oyster sauce
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp rice wine
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 1-3 tsp Asian chili sauce
- 4-6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
Instructions
- Pat dry the sliced beef strips with paper towels and toss with ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside. In the slow cooker, combine all sauce ingredients and whisk until the cornstarch dissolves. Add the beef to the sauce and stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours until the beef is tender. Once the beef is tender, tilt the slow cooker to the side and transfer as much sauce as possible into a saucepan using an oven mitt. Set aside.
- Add broccoli on top of the beef in the slow cooker, covering it without stirring to allow the broccoli to steam. Cook for an additional 20-30 minutes until the broccoli is crisp-tender.
- Meanwhile, simmer the sauce on the stove until thickened to a desired consistency. Transfer the thickened sauce back to the slow cooker and stir to combine with the beef and broccoli.
- Serve with rice and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions if desired. Enjoy!
