My slow cooker is the most frequently used appliance in my kitchen! I can make delicious and nutritious meals with just a few minutes of prep, and then move on with my day... and I only dirty one pot! This recipe has quickly become a family favorite!
Slow Cooker Beef & Broccoli
- 1 pound boneless sirloin, cut into thin strips
- 1 cup low-sodium beef broth (or dissolve a beef bouillon cube in one cup boiling water)
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/3 cup honey
- 3 Tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
- 1-2 pounds fresh or frozen broccoli
Stir together all ingredients except broccoli in a large slow cooker. Cook on LOW for 5-6 hours. Stir in broccoli and continue cooking for another hour, moving heat to HIGH if using frozen broccoli. Serve over hot cooked rice.
Note: You can add broccoli at the beginning of your cooking time, but I like my veggies to be a little on the crunchy side so I add them at the end.
