Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For best results, reheat beef and broccoli in a skillet over medium heat, adding a splash of water or broth if needed to loosen the sauce.
- Serve your speedy beef and broccoli over steamed rice or quinoa for a complete and satisfying meal.
- To maximize flavor, marinate the sliced beef in 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce mixture for at least 10 minutes before cooking.
