We love Asian dishes and for years I've tried to make beef & broccoli. Every time the beef ends up extremely tough and kind of dry. Then I thought, I wonder if you can make it in a crock pot. Low and behold I found numerous recipes but one stood out and I do not think I could have found Better so I've decided to share!
1 beef bouillon cube
1 cup warm water
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 1/2 pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch strips
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 pounds broccoli florets, or to taste
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
6 h 45 m
Crumble beef bouillon cube into warm water in a bowl and stir to dissolve; add soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and sesame oil and stir to dissolve sugar.
Put beef strips into a slow cooker crock.
Pour sauce mixture over the beef.
Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours (or on High for 4 hours).
Spoon 2 tablespoons liquid from the slow cooker into a bowl.
Whisk cornstarch into the liquid and stir the cornstarch mixture into the liquid in the slow cooker until consistent in color.
Cook on High until the sauce thickens, about 30 minutes.
Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer.
Bring water to a boil.
Cook broccoli in covered steamer until tender, 2 to 6 minutes; add to sauce in slow cooker and stir to coat.
