Ingredients
- 1 lb beef tenderloin, sliced into 1-inch thick pieces
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
How to Make Beef Tenderloin with Broccoli
- Begin by marinating the beef. In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and honey. Add the beef tenderloin slices and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature.
- While the beef is marinating, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch for about 2 minutes until vibrant green but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef tenderloin slices, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the blanched broccoli and stir-fry for 2 minutes, allowing it to absorb the flavors left in the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked beef back to the skillet and toss everything together for another minute to ensure everything is well combined and heated through.
- Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Let the beef marinate for longer if you have time; it enhances the flavor.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure your beef is cooked to your liking (145°F for medium-rare).
- Keep the broccoli bright and crisp by not overcooking it.
Easy Variations
- Swap the beef for chicken or tofu for a different protein.
- Add chili flakes for a spicy kick.
- Incorporate other vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas for added color and nutrition.
What to Serve With It
- Steamed jasmine rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
- A simple salad with a sesame dressing.
- Noodles tossed in soy sauce for a heartier side.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm in a skillet over low heat until heated through, adding a splash of water or soy sauce to keep it moist.
