This Teriyaki Beef and Broccoli with Rice is a high-protein, flavourful meal that comes together in just 15-20 minutes. Packed with lean beef, nutrient-rich broccoli, and a savoury teriyaki sauce, it's perfect for meal prep or a quick dinner option. Serve it fresh with fluffy basmati rice and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for extra crunch.
Cook the Beef: Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat and spray with low-calorie cooking spray. Add the diced beef, season with salt and black pepper, and crumble in the beef stock cube. Cook for 4-5 minutes until browned.
Cook the Broccoli: While the beef is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the frozen broccoli until tender. Drain and set aside.
Combine Beef and Broccoli: Once the beef is browned, add the cooked broccoli to the pan and stir well to combine.
Add the Sauce: Pour the teriyaki sauce over the beef and broccoli, stirring to coat everything evenly. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Cook the rice: Cook the basmati rice according to the packet instructions while the beef and broccoli are finishing up.
Serve: Divide the freshly cooked rice into serving bowls, top with the teriyaki beef and broccoli, and garnish with sesame seeds if using.
