Ingredients
Beef and Broccoli
- 1.5 lbs flank steak, sliced thinly
- 2 cups broccoli florets
Sauce
- 1/2 cup soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 1 tbsp erythritol or preferred sweetener (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce or coconut aminos, beef broth, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, erythritol if using, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Place beef in crockpot: Arrange the thinly sliced flank steak in the crockpot evenly.
- Add sauce to beef: Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the beef and stir gently to ensure all the meat is coated.
- Cook the beef: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours until the beef is tender.
- Add broccoli: About 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, add the broccoli florets to the crockpot and stir to combine.
- Finish cooking: Continue cooking uncovered for the last 30 minutes to allow the broccoli to cook but stay crisp.
- Serve: Spoon the beef and broccoli onto plates and garnish with sesame seeds before serving hot.
Notes
- For a soy-free version, use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
- If you don't have erythritol, you can omit the sweetener or substitute with another keto-friendly sweetener.
- Be careful not to overcook the broccoli to maintain its texture and nutrients.
- Slicing the flank steak thinly across the grain helps keep the meat tender.
- If you prefer, use frozen broccoli florets but reduce the final cooking time with broccoli to 15 minutes.
