Craving Chinese takeout but want a healthier, homemade version? This Beef & Broccoli Stir Fry recipe is perfect for satisfying those cravings while keeping things fresh and nutritious! With tender marinated skirt steak, crisp broccoli, and vibrant red bell peppers, this stir fry comes together quickly, making it an ideal weeknight dinner. Plus, by prepping the sauces and veggies ahead of time, you’ll have dinner ready in a flash. For our vegetarian friends, swap the steak with a veggie stir fry using mushrooms, snap peas, and carrots for a colorful twist.
Meal prep is key to making weeknight dinners stress-free—marinate the steak or tofu overnight, slice up those veggies in advance, and even cook the rice a day or two ahead. This recipe features our yummy One Potato Steak Marinade and One Potato Stir Fry Sauce, with delicious ginger-garlic flavors. So, why order out when you can whip up a healthy and delicious stir fry right at home?
Meal Prep:
Pre-Made Sauces: Pre-make the One Potato Skirt Steak Marinade and Ginger-Garlic Stir Fry Sauce.
Marinate in Advance: Marinate the skirt steak (or tofu for vegetarians) overnight for enhanced flavor and to save time on the day of cooking.
Pre-Slice Vegetables: Slice the red bell pepper and prepare the broccoli florets in advance. Store them in airtight containers in the fridge until ready to use. Some stores might sell pre-sliced red bell peppers.
Broccoli Florets: Buy a bag of pre-cut broccoli florets to save time on washing and cutting fresh broccoli.
Time Savers:
Use Store-bought Sauces: Primal Kitchen No-Soy Teriyaki Sauce is a great steak marinade, or try out a few to find your favorite. You can find pre-made stir fry sauces as well, with different dietary requirements on the label (such as sugar-free).
Make Extra:
Batch Cook Rice: Cook the rice a day or two ahead and store it in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop when ready to serve. You can keep rice on hand for quick meals any time.
Meal Prep Containers: Portion out the stir fry into meal prep containers for easy grab-and-go lunches throughout the week.
Make a second or third meal:
Use leftover beef or make extra to assemble Asian-inspired tacos. Set out a taco bar with your leftover beef, warm corn tortillas, sliced cabbage, avocado, and a variety of sauces (sriracha mayo is a winner here!).
Or you can heap extras onto a baked potato or sweet potato for a nice healthy twist.
Be creative with steak sandwiches for lunch, we love sourdough bread with Swiss or cheddar cheese, extra homemade Stir Fry Sauce spread on the bread, and some cabbage for crunch.
