A quick and satisfying dinner made with tender beef, crisp broccoli, garlic, and ginger. This simple stir-fry is rich in protein and pairs well with rice or noodles for a balanced meal that can fuel training and support recovery.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) beef sirloin, thinly sliced
4 cups broccoli florets
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 tbsp olive oil or neutral cooking oil, if needed
Black pepper, to taste
Cooked rice or noodles, for serving
Directions
Thinly slice the beef against the grain. Pat dry with a paper towel and set aside.
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the beef in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.
Add the broccoli and soy sauce. Stir well to combine.
Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp. If the pan becomes dry, add a splash of water.
Taste and add black pepper or additional soy sauce if needed.
Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
Try Different Flavour Profiles
Teriyaki: Add a splash of teriyaki sauce and top with sesame seeds and green onions.
Spicy: Add red pepper flakes, chili garlic sauce, or sriracha for some heat.
Ginger-Lime: Add extra fresh ginger and finish with a squeeze of lime juice.
Veggie-Packed: Add sliced bell peppers, carrots, mushrooms, snap peas, or edamame.
Peanut: Add a spoonful of peanut butter to the sauce and a splash of water to create a creamy peanut stir-fry sauce.
Cut the beef into thin, evenly sized pieces so it cooks quickly and stays tender. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this can cause the beef to steam rather than brown.
Athlete Tip
Don't forget the carbohydrates: Beef provides high-quality protein, iron, and other nutrients that support an athlete's diet, while broccoli adds fibre and micronutrients. Pairing the stir-fry with rice or noodles provides the carbohydrates needed to support training and replenish glycogen stores.
For a higher-energy meal, increase the rice or noodle portion or add carbohydrate-rich vegetables such as corn, carrots, or edamame. You can also add avocado, sesame seeds, or a small amount of extra oil for additional energy and healthy fats.
Meal prep: Prepare the beef and broccoli ahead of time and portion with cooked rice into individual containers. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days and reheat thoroughly before serving.
