Easy Beef and Broccoli (with Ground Beef)
Report
This easy Beef and Broccoli recipe takes less than 30 minutes to get on the table. Filled with savory beef and tender broccoli all nestled in a sweet and savory stir fry sauce, this dinner is as delicious as it is easy.

Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef lean
- ½ yellow onion diced
- 8 ounces broccoli chopped into bite sized pieces, florets
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional- see note)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and onion and cook breaking apart as you stir until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the sesame oil and chopped broccoli florets and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Then add the soy sauce, hoisin, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar (optional) to the beef and broccoli and stir until everything is well coated. Let simmer for another 2-3 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
- Serve warm over rice, in lettuce wraps, or in a bowl.
Notes
- Sweeter Beef and Broccoli
- If you like your stir fry sweeter and stickier, you can add up to 1/4 cup brown sugar to the sauce mixture. I personally prefer to keep it lighter and I make this without the brown sugar.
- Saucy Beef and Broccoli
- This recipe has a light coating of sauce. If you like a really saucy stir fry, I would double the sauce ingredients to give you twice the amount of sauce.
