Beef With Broccoli Beef With Broccoli Instant Pot

I'm combining two of my favorite things today. My instant pot and Chinese food! This Whole30 instant pot beef and broccoli is about a million times healthier than the beef and broccoli y'all would normally get in your takeout order. Information technology besides happens to be a quicker option also, with simply thirty minutes needed to put this on the dinner table! Got your attention at present didn't I? Idea then!

I remember when I first got my instant pot this summer and was terrified of it. I remember writing in the outset recipe I posted hither nearly how it looked like a spaceship (haha!) and that I was so nervous to employ it. Compared to my slow cooker that has two buttons for low and high, this contraption felt like I needed an engineering degree to figure out. Just, alas, I managed, and at present I couldn't imagine life without it. Bonus: my kitchen hasn't exploded (yet).

Pivot to Pinterest!

If you've been hesitating on getting ane for yourself, I'm here to tell you it'due south worth it. Not only for like shooting fish in a barrel 30 minute meals from get-go to finish, like this beefiness and broccoli or my chicken taco soup, simply fifty-fifty for batch cooking! I love using it at the get-go of the week to cook a agglomeration of craven breasts to die or shred, pork, taco meat or roasts so I have a get-to protein for the week.

For this instant pot beefiness and broccoli, you lot can use flank steak or a beef chuck roast. If y'all use a chuck roast, make sure to trim any extra fat prior to cooking. Those cuts of beefiness typically are a flake fattier, but they're also cheaper then it's a good budget choice!

Instead of a typical soy sauce (Paleo = no soy), I use coconut aminos. You tin pretty much go coconut aminos anywhere nowadays. Target and Walmart even. My favorite brands are Large Tree Farms and just the Thrive Market brand because it's style cheaper and I go through this stuff like water sometimes. I DID tell yous I was a huge fan of Chinese food at the beginning of this, retrieve?

I did link to Big Tree Farms on Amazon, but simply to prove you what I'm yappin' nigh. It's way cheaper on Thrive Market per bottle (like half the price) so just a heads upwards there. Thrive Market gives you 20% off your kickoff 3 orders as well, then you tin can maximize your savings there besides.

The other ingredients used in this uncomplicated Whole30 instant pot beef and broccoli recipe are sesame oil, which is a staple for creating the well known Asian flavor in dishes. Along with using arrowroot flour as the thickener instead of cornstarch. Some other options for thickening sauces are tapioca starch, coconut flour or gelatin.

This will cook the broccoli more thoroughly as opposed to lightly steaming it for more fork tender broccoli. Then continue with stride seven.
