Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef chuck or flank steak
- 1 cup beef broth
- 0.5 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.33 cup dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 4 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 4 cups cooked white rice or brown rice (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Slice the beef into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, cutting against the grain for tenderness.
Step 2
In the crock pot, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, dark brown sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic until well combined.
Step 3
Add the sliced beef to the crock pot and stir to ensure the beef is fully coated in the sauce.
Step 4
Set the crock pot to low and cook for 4 hours, or until the beef is tender and infused with flavor.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add this mixture to the crock pot and stir well to thicken the sauce.
Step 6
Add the fresh broccoli florets to the crock pot, mixing gently to coat them in the sauce. Cover and cook on low for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant green.
Step 7
Serve the beef and broccoli hot over cooked rice, if desired, and enjoy!
