This is a yummy dish with beef and green broccoli. You cook it in a pot that uses pressure to cook things fast. It's like a quick, homemade version of a dish you might get at a Chinese restaurant.

Ingredients

1.5 pounds round steak, cut into bite-size pieces

1 cup beef broth

1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce

1 Tablespoon minced garlic

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 Tablespoons olive oil

1 Tablespoon sesame oil

2 Tablespoons cornstarch

2 Tablespoons cold water

1 large broccoli crown, cut into florets

1 small onion, diced

1 Tablespoon sesame seeds (optional for garnish)

Method

In an electric pressure cooker, add the olive oil and sesame oil, and set to sauté mode. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and cook until soft and translucent.

Add the bite-size pieces of steak to the pot and brown them slightly.

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the beef broth, soy sauce, and brown sugar. Pour this mixture over the steak in the pressure cooker.

Seal the pressure cooker and set to cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. After cooking, do a quick release to release the pressure.

While the beef is cooking, steam the broccoli florets until tender, about 3-4 minutes, and set aside.

Mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry. Once the beef is done, switch the pressure cooker back to sauté mode and stir in the cornstarch slurry. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens.

Add the steamed broccoli to the pot, stirring to combine with the beef and sauce.

If desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish.

Serve immediately over rice or your choice of side.
