Tips:
- Prep Ahead: To save time, marinate the beef and prepare the sauce the night before cooking.
- Tenderize the Beef: Use a meat mallet or fork to tenderize the beef before marinating for extra tender results.
- Choose the Right Beef: For a leaner option, use flank steak or sirloin steak. For a more flavorful dish, use ribeye steak or New York strip steak.
- Cook on Low: Cooking the beef and broccoli on low for 6-8 hours allows the flavors to meld and the beef to become fall-apart tender.
- Thicken the Sauce: If desired, thicken the sauce by adding a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) towards the end of cooking.
- Serve with Rice: Beef and broccoli is traditionally served over rice. For a healthier option, use brown rice or cauliflower rice.
