Beef and Broccoli Ramen Stir Fry
Description
Beef and Broccoli Ramen Stir Fry features thinly sliced flank steak seared until browned and combined with tender-crisp broccoli and yaki-soba noodles. The sauce incorporates soy sauce, beef broth, honey, garlic, and a touch of sriracha for mild heat, thickened with cornstarch to coat the ingredients evenly. The noodles, softened briefly in boiling water before cooking, absorb the flavorful sauce during stir frying. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of sesame seeds for subtle nuttiness and texture.
The stir fry method delivers a dish where the steak remains juicy and the broccoli retains a slight bite, complemented by the slippery yet firm noodles. The combination of rice wine vinegar and brown sugar balances the sauce with sweet and tangy notes, while fresh ginger heightens the aromatic profile.
Serve this stir fry as a standalone meal for lunch or dinner. It provides a hearty mix of protein, vegetables, and carbohydrates without requiring side dishes. The recipe is straightforward and convenient for cooks looking to use refrigerated noodles and staple pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 yaki-soba noodles refrigerated, seasoning sauce packets discarded
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced across the grain
- 1 broccoli cut into florets, head
- ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
For the sauce
- ¾ cup soy sauce reduced sodium
- ¾ cup beef broth
- ¼ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar packed
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon ginger freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon sriracha optional
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, beef broth, honey, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, sesame oil, cornstarch, ginger, Sriracha and 1/2 cup water; set aside.
- In a large pot of boiling water, add Yaki-Soba until loosened, about 1-2 minutes; drain well.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add steak and cook, flipping once, until browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in Yaki-Soba, broccoli and soy sauce mixture until broccoli is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds, if desired.
Notes
- Yaki-Soba noodles can be found in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores, often near other Asian noodles.
- Use thinly sliced flank steak for quick and even cooking; slicing across the grain helps tenderness.
- Stir fry the broccoli until just tender to maintain a slight crunch and bright color.
