Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli

 
Are you looking for a delicious dinner that takes 15 minutes to cook in your Instant Pot? This delicious stir-fry recipe results in a tender, tasty, and no-fuss dinner.

One of my favourite items to order at a Chinese restaurant is beef and broccoli. The salty sweet sauce, and blend of meat and bright green broccoli makes my mouth water just thinking of it. Thing is, you can make an EASY version of this classic from home, making it easier and more affordable.

This Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli recipe is especially great for those busy weekend nights, from start to finish {including chopping etc}, I made this in 40 minutes flat.

When choosing meat for this recipe, I suggest a boneless chunk roast cut into strips, as it’ll become so tender when pressure cooked. As a warning, other stir-fry cuts intended for quick searing might become tough when pressure cooked.

One thing that is crucial to remember, is to use Low Sodium Soy Sauce. Any others and your dish will be too salty.
 

What to serve with Beef and Broccoli?

 
We served ours with the all-time favourite, rice. Jasmine rice to be exact. Yet, you could switch things up based on preference or diet and go with a ramen noodle or Cauliflower Fried Rice.

We had leftovers of this dish, and they tasted so good! So feel free to double the recipe {not the pressure cooker time}, and make individual servings for work and school lunches.

For other amazing Asian dishes to try at home, I suggest these Asian Marinated Beef Kabobs, and this Oriental Chicken Salad.

Enjoy the recipe!

Yield: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes

Skip the Chinese takeout and make this easy Instant Pot Beef and Broccoli from the comforts of home. A perfect quick stir-fry, and cooks less than 15 minutes in a pressure cooker.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless chunk roast, cut into strips
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 1/2 small onion, diced

FOR THE SAUCE

  • 3/4 cup low sodium beef broth
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp corn starch

Instructions

  1. Choose the saute mode on the Instant Pot and add canola oil. When the pot is hot, add the garlic, onion, and beef slices. Cook for a few minutes until the meat is brown, stirring frequently. 
  2. Add in the broth, soy sauce and brown sugar. Stir to dissolve sugar then turn off the saute mode.
  3. Secure and seal the Instant Pot lid and cook for 15 minutes at high pressure
  4. While the Instant Pot cooks, cook the broccoli {adding in 1 cup of water with it} for 3-4 minutes in the microwave, or until tender
  5. This is also the time to start cooking your rice or other preferred side dish to your meal
  6. When the instant Pot is done, manually release the pressure by carefully turning the release knob and venting. 
  7. Take off the instant Pot lid and remove about 1/2 of the liquid, into a small bowl. Mix the cornstarch into it until smooth.
  8. Return reserve to post and saute again for about 5 minutes, so the sauce thickens up. Turn off saute mode, and toss broccoli into the pot and stir until coated. 
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!

    instant-pot-beef-and-broccoli. I’ve always enjoyed Chinese beef and broccoli and your recipe was easy to read and the instructions would be quick to follow. Loved all the pictures you included in the meal.

    This recipe looks delicious but I’m afraid if I bought an instant pot I’d end up blowing up my house
