Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli

 

Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli

A few months ago, I decided to make some Instant Pot freezer meals. This Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli was one that I froze back then and finally made last night. I adapted it for a freezer meal but you could make it fresh. I threw everything in except the cornstarch and froze.

Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli

Ingredients

  • 1 small onion (I used granulated onion)
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 1/2 lbs thinly sliced steak
  • 3 T sesame oil
  • 3 T olive oil
  • 1/3 C soy sauce
  • 3/4 C beef broth
  • 1/3 C brown sugar
  • 1 bag frozen broccoli (or fresh)
  • 2 T water
  • 1 T cornstarch

Instructions for freezer meal

Throw everything in gallon bag (except broccoli, water, and cornstarch).

Put broccoli in another gallon bag.

Seal both bags and put them into a third gallon sized bag. Freeze.

When ready to cook, thaw and put contents of first bag into Instant Pot.

Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes with a natural release.

Mix 2 T water with 1 T cornstarch and saute for a couple of minutes to thicken.

Meanwhile, steam broccoli and cook rice. Stir in the broccoli and serve over rice.

Instructions for making fresh

Saute beef in Instant Pot until meat is brown (1-2 minutes).

Add onion and garlic and continue to saute until onions are tender.

Add beef broth and soy sauce.

Stir in brown sugar until dissolved.

Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes with a natural release.

Mix 2 T water with 1 T cornstarch and saute for a couple of minutes to thicken.

Meanwhile, steam broccoli and cook rice. Stir in the broccoli and serve over rice.
