Easy Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry
Classics are classics for a reason. Like peanut butter and jelly. Like Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry. Really. If you google Beef with Broccoli Stir Fry, it's searched for 60,500 times a month. Apparently I am not the only one who loves Beef with Broccoli.
Beef with Broccoli Stir Fry with Snow Peas and Edamame
Actually if you look closely at the photo, you'll notice that I should have called it Beef with Broccoli, Snow Peas and Edamame, but I was just too lazy to type all that in on my photo. The inspiration for this recipes comes from Ellie Krieger's Emerald Stir-fry with Beef in So Easy. The original recipe also called for asparagus, but I didn't have any and really it seemed plenty enough with the three veggies.
With just a little preparation, this stir fry comes together very quickly for an easy weeknight dinner. I love serving mine on white plates with chopsticks. We always love the opportunity to practice eating with them!
Beef with Broccoli and Snow Peas
Ingredients
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup mirin
- ¼ cup orange juice
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons canola oil

- 2 cups edamame frozen, shelled
- 2 cups snow peas fresh
- 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch dissolved in ¼ cup of cold water
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 3 cups brown rice cooked
Instructions
- Combine the soy sauce, mirin, orange juice, water, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the canola oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cooked until just browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the wok. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Add the broccoli, edamame, and snow peas. Cook for about 3 minutes.

Beef with brocolli is my favorite when I go to a Chinese restaurant, but I have never made it at home. I am going to try this and use our sugar snap pea from the garden.
