Beef and Broccoli Teriyaki Freezer Meal
Tender beef stir-fried with broccoli and a sweet and tasty teriyaki sauce that makes a really easy skillet freezer meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lb steak I buy mine pre-sliced to save time, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup soy sauce or tamari sauce
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic about 1 clove, minced
- 1/2 tsp ginger fresh, minced
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil toasted
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 3-4 cups broccoli fresh or frozen, florets
- vegetable oil 3-4 tbsp, or canola oil, on cooking day
Instructions
- Add sliced steak + cornstarch into gallon-sized freezer bag. Shake bag until all sides of steak pieces are coated. Seal bag, removing air.
- In a small bowl (or place directly into quart sized freezer bag) combine tamari or soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, sesame oil and red pepper flakes.
MAKE IT NOW
- Add 3-4 tbsp vegetable or canola oil to a wok or large skillet and heat on high.
- Add steak into wok and stir-fry, separating pieces and stirring constantly until the majority of the pieces have some golden or crispy edges on them, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add broccoli, cook 1-2 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Add sauce, and cook, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until sauce slightly thickens.
- Serve.
MAKE IT A FREEZER MEAL
- Label a new gallon-sized freezer bag. Add to labeled bag the sealed steak with cornstarch bag, sealed sauce bag, and add in broccoli florets on top.
- Seal bags together and freeze.
QUICK THAW:
- Thaw steak and sauce packets quickly by running under warm water until you can break the packets up.
- Or place the whole kit in the fridge first thing in the morning so the meat will be thawed by dinner time.
COOK IN WOK OR LARGE SKILLET:
- Add 3-4 tbsp vegetable or canola oil over high heat.
- Pour steak into wok, stir-fry, separating pieces and stirring constantly until the majority of the pieces have some golden or crispy edges on them, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add broccoli, cook 1-2 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Add sauce, and cook, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until sauce slightly thickens.
