Beef & Broccoli Bowls






















































Difficulty: Medium
Will I make it again? No... it was so good, but I'll only make it if I can find a cleaner way.  I spent days cleaning grease slime off everything after frying that steak.  I would do it in my Foreman Grill but I always overcook everything in it.

When I first cut into the steak after removing it from heat and letting it rest I was devastated to see that the middle was seriously under... like TOO raw.  But after I poured the hot broth on it, it faded to a decent medium rare.  SCORE!

We ate this with chopsticks and felt young again.

Beef & Broccoli Bowls

Ingredients


4 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 tsp. vegetable oil
3 teaspoons finely grated ginger
3 scallions, thinly sliced, dark-green parts separated
1 1 pound top sirloin steak
4 cups beef broth
4 2.1 ounce packages  dried ramen noodles, spice packets discarded
8 ounces head broccoli, broken into small florets
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
1 7 ounce jar  baby corn, drained

Directions


Whisk 2 tbsp. soy sauce, 1 tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. ginger and the white and pale-green parts of the scallions in a large bowl. Add the steak to the marinade and turn to coat. Bring a kettle of water to a boil.
Bring the broth, the remaining 2 tbsp. soy sauce and 2 tsp. ginger to a boil in a 6-qt. pot. Reduce the heat to low and simmer while you cook the steak.
Heat the remaining 1 1/2 tsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Remove the steak from the marinade, scraping the scallion pieces back into the bowl. Add the steak to the skillet; cook to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steak to a plate. Pour the scallion marinade into the skillet; stir to heat through and add to the soup pot.
Add the noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover the bowl with a plate and let the noodles sit while you cook the vegetables.
Add the broccoli to the soup pot; cook 3 minutes. Add the pepper and corn, and simmer until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain.
Divide the noodles among bowls using tongs. Top with the vegetables, broth and steak. Sprinkle with the dark-green scallions.
