Leftover Meat Recipes

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • - Leftover steak sliced
  • - 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • - 1/2 cup water
  • - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • - Vegetable oil for frying
  • - Broccoli florets
  • - 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • - 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • - 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • - 2 tablespoons cornstarch for sauce
  • - Cooked rice for serving

Instructions
 

  • Cooking Instructions:
  • In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1/2 cup of water, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder. Mix well and set aside.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sliced leftover steak and stir-fry until the beef is heated through.
  • Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and continue stir-frying for about 5 minutes or until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to create the sauce.
  • Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and broccoli in the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  • Serve the beef and broccoli over a bed of cooked rice.
  • Extra Tips: For added flavor, consider marinating your leftover steak in a soy sauce mixture before cooking. You can also customize the dish by adding other vegetables such as bell peppers or snap peas for extra color and nutrition.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a drizzle of sriracha or crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce. Enjoy your homemade beef and broccoli!
