asian beef and broccoli noodle bowl
Add delicious flavor and nutrition to an otherwise ho-hum ramen noodle packet. Tender beef and broccoli take this dish to the next level.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds beef Shoulder Steaks Boneless, cut 3/4 to 1-inch thick
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 3 cups water, divided
- 2 packages (3 oundes each) Oriental or beef-flavored instant ramen noodles, broken up
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 4 cups broccoli florets, cut into 1 to 1 1/2 inch pieces
- TOPPINGS
- Toasted Sesame seeds, sliced green onions, chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Directions
- Heat oil in stockpot over medium heat until hot. Place beef steaks in stockpot; brown evenly. Pour off drippings; season with pepper, as desired.
- Add 1 cup water, seasoning packets from ramen noodles and ginger; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 1-1/4 to 1-3/4 hours or until beef is fork-tender.
- Remove steaks; keep warm. Add remaining 2 cups water, broccoli and noodles to stockpot; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, 4 to 6 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender and noodles are tender, stirring occasionally.
- Carve steaks into thin slices; return to stockpot. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Garnish with toppings, if desired.
