Ingredients

Directions

1. Start by slicing the meat against the grain in thin slices. Dice the onion and cut the fresh broccoli.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, beef broth, garlic and ginger.
3. Add this liquid mixture to the meat strips.
4. Add about 3 tablespoons of olive oil or peanut oil to your pressure cooker and saute the onions until they are translucent in color. Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe Add the meat combined with the liquid marinade to the pressure cooker and set it on manual high pressure for 10 minutes. The quick release the pressure value. Carefully remove about a 1/3 cup of the hot juices and add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Use a fork or a whisk to make sure the cornstarch is well combined. I find it easier to combine cornstarch in hot liquid. If you prefer, you can use warm water also. I’ve done it both ways and it hardly makes a difference. Add the mixture back into the pressure cooker and stir. You will notice the liquid begin to thicken as it sits. Place the pound of broccoli in the microwave on high for about 5 minutes with 1 cup of water. This will steam it to the perfect consistency. Works for both frozen and fresh broccoli. Drain the water from the broccoli and mix it in to the beef mixture in your pressure cooker. The beef and broccoli is done and ready to serve over rice! Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe I personally love to use a chuck roast in this recipe. I don’t really care for flank steak myself. Man this was yummy!!! Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe I have two pressure cookers so I had rice cooking in the other one at the same time. Rice is super simple in the pressure cooker. It’s two cups of water per one cup of rice. Cook it on manual high pressure for exactly 3 minutes and then natural release it for another 10 minutes. Perfect rice every single time! Sometimes I replace the water with broth. Beef, chicken or vegetable broth depending on what dish I’m making. I used the rest of the beef broth in my rice for this recipe. Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe I love that I can use a low sodium soy sauce and still have this dish come out tasting amazing! I tend to skip the take out and make my own from now on!

Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe Easy Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe Rate Recipe Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes Servings: 6 servings Author: Jennifer Ingredients 2 pounds of meat chuck roast, rump roast or flank steak, cut into thin strips 3 tablespoons olive oil or peanut oil 1 medium onion diced 1 cup beef broth 2 tablespoons garlic minced 1/2 cup soy sauce I prefer a low sodium soy sauce 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 bag frozen broccoli or 1 pound of fresh broccoli if you prefer 1 teaspoon ground ginger 2 tablespoons starch Serve with white rice Instructions Start by slicing the meat against the grain in thin slices. Dice the onion and cut the fresh broccoli. You want all of these things done before you get started. In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, beef broth, garlic and ginger. I hardly ever use ginger so I used the powdered ginger spice instead of the fresh. Don't add the starch until the very end. (I accidentally added the starch before and my pressure cooker never came to pressure because there was not enough liquid to make it work. It's okay, I'm happy to share my failures with you so that you don't make the same mistakes I do) Add this liquid mixture to the meat strips.

Comments Amy says March 4, 2019 at 1:37 pm Really good recipe. I would say cut the 10 minutes down to 9 or 8. Also, buy stew beef already cut up to save time and elbow grease. Reply Diana Lund says February 10, 2019 at 6:10 pm In reading through this recipe, there is a sentence that I don’t understand. Step 5:Add the meat combined with the liquid marinade to the pressure cooker and set it on manual high pressure for 10 minutes. THE QUICK RELEASE THE PRESSURE VALUE. What do you mean by “the quick release the pressure value?” Is this a setting on an older model of the Instant Pot? Can I just set it for manual high pressure, and at the end of 10 minus do a quick release? Thanks in advance for your help–I’m looking forward to trying this recipe! Reply Lori says November 27, 2018 at 7:09 pm My first instapot meal and it was a hit. Would definitely make again Reply Joanne Drown says November 9, 2018 at 3:58 pm My family loved this and we make it often. We love it as left overs. Reply Julia says December 12, 2017 at 8:44 pm Just made for my boyfriend and I, ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! The sauce is phenomenal. Worked out perfect. Can’t wait to make more of your recipes! Reply ron says January 7, 2018 at 11:05 am this is no doubt one of the best dinners we have fixed! I’ll be cooking this over and over!! thanks so Much! Reply Liz says November 15, 2017 at 1:27 am What kind of rice grain do you use for rice recipe? Thanks! Reply Charles says October 15, 2017 at 7:33 pm Made this tonight as per the instructions and it was phenomenal. I usually try a recipe as written and then modify it if needed or see what others may have changed, but this was perfect as is. I did serve it over buttered egg noodles though. The whole family loved it. I have a regular pressure cooker and the times crossed over perfectly. This will definitely go into my keeper quick meal selection. Thanks! Reply Natalie says September 26, 2017 at 11:33 am This is exactly what I was looking for! The beef was delicious and tender, and there was enough for leftovers for my family of 3. Reply Shannon E says September 21, 2017 at 3:27 pm Hi! This meal is in my pressure cooker as I type. 😀 My OCD makes me check the recipe, especially the ingredients, over and over again– even the pics. There seems to be sesame seeds on your beef in I’ve pic… May I ask what that ingredient that is? Also why is sesame oil in your pictures and not the recipe? Is it optional? Thanks!! P.S. Can’t wait to eat this!! Reply Jennifer says September 24, 2017 at 8:16 pm I was testing this recipe when I took the photos. Sometimes I make it 2 or 3 different times until it comes out just perfect. Please disregard the sesame oil. I ended up not using it. Also, the sesame seeds in the pictures were just for pleasing photo purposes. Reply Kalen says September 16, 2017 at 1:07 pm Made this the other night using a rump roast. I found the meat to be really tough. Do you know what I could do differently? I cut against the grain in strips that resembled your photo. Does the type of meat make a difference or maybe try lowering the cooking time? The flank steak was $22, so I didn’t go that route. I’m not sure if that’s a normal price for flank steak or if it was post hurricane Irma prices, but our options were slim. The $10 rump roast was more appealing. Either way, it was delicious, I would just prefer a more fall apart meat. 😊 Reply Maryann says March 10, 2019 at 12:41 pm If it was tough, then I would add more time to the cooking process, maybe a minute or two.. Mine turned out very tender, i used a chuck roast. Reply J murphy says August 13, 2017 at 6:00 pm 2 Tablespoons Garlic? Chopped, crushed, pressed or minced? Reply Jennifer says August 14, 2017 at 9:13 am I used fresh garlic and minced. Thanks for asking! I will update the instructions. Reply Josie says July 17, 2017 at 7:19 pm Really enjoyed this! I bought stir fry beef that was sliced VERY thin, so I reduced the cook time to 8 min. It was perfect! Reply Jamie Jarvis says July 16, 2017 at 1:36 am That recipe looks great. However, I don’t know how you cook rice in 3 minutes unless you are using instant rice. My white rice takes 12 minutes (or the button on the IP) and my brown rice takes 23 minutes. I do natural release because I have heard that the starchy steam can clog your valve. On the stove I do a 1:2 ratio rice/water. however, in the IP, I use a ration of 1:1.25 Some IP users use a 1:1 ratio. I think there is some adjustments needed at high elevations. Reply Becky says July 10, 2017 at 3:41 pm Made this today. Easy and tasted great. Thanks for sharing. Reply Wendy says June 22, 2017 at 7:12 pm My hubby loved it!! I added a 1/2 tsp honey to the sauce and it turned out great!! I also added slices of bellpepper too! I put my fresh broccoli in with the meat and sauce and cooked 2 mins, since I had already cooked my roast the night before in the pressure cooker XL. The broccoli was good, but just a little over cooked….but still good tasting!! Thanks for sharing this recipe!! Reply Sandi says June 10, 2017 at 10:45 am Made just like the recipe, but it didn’t thicken too much. Put on sauté and added more thickening and it did fine. Reply Heidi says May 15, 2017 at 10:52 am This looks great – can’t wait to try it tonight!! You might try Bragg’s Aminos in place of soy sauce; great taste and you avoid both sodium and soy issues. Thank you for the recipe! Reply HollyT says May 7, 2017 at 8:27 pm We made this tonight in our hotel room and it was so tasty my super picky four year old ate a serving! We used stew beef and didn’t cut it any thinner. We didn’t have a microwave safe bowl so we tossed it in the Instant Pot and set it for 1 minute. It was a tad mushy, but still tasty. We served it with the microwave rice bowls as well. Thank you for a simple, tasty recipe that has served us well on our vacation. Reply Jone says April 23, 2017 at 3:21 pm Thank you for this recipe . Just got my instant pot , this was the very first recipe I tried , it was amazing !! Tasted so good and it really was so easy !!! Love , Love , Love this ! Reply Barb says April 19, 2017 at 4:19 pm Why not figure out a way to cook the broccoli in the Instant Pot too instead of using another pan? I’ve only had my Instant Pot 2 weeks so I’m still learning. I love it! Reply Jennifer says April 23, 2017 at 9:06 am I’ve tried cooking the broccoli in with the beef but it will be way overcooked when it’s done. I don’t recommend it. I am speaking from experience on this one. 😉 Reply Lynn says May 10, 2017 at 12:12 am I pulled the meat out after cooking, added the cornstarch to the liquid, added the broccoli on a trivet, and set it at high pressure for zero minutes. Perfectly thickened liquid, perfectly cooked broccoli! Reply Jen says November 20, 2017 at 9:51 pm Hi. Just wondering how you set it for 0 minutes, how does that work??…and if you quick pressure released or natural Thanks! Reply Robyn says April 5, 2017 at 11:13 pm Love this recipe! Thank you! Do you know by chance if I’d have to adjust the time if I double the batch? Reply Stephanie Miller says March 19, 2017 at 7:32 pm This was so easy! It tasted better than a restaurants. Beef and broccoli is my husbands favorite and he loved this! I will definitely be making this again. The only suggestion my husband had was to add sine carrots cut into sticks. Reply Shirley Fennicks says February 14, 2017 at 11:42 am Thank you Reply Linda says February 14, 2017 at 10:08 am what s the difference between a pressure cooker and a instant pot? Reply Jennifer says February 14, 2017 at 6:42 pm The Instant Pot is a type of brand. There are many different brands of an electric pressure cooker. I prefer the Instant Pot myself.
