I clipped this Easy Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry recipe from Taste of Home magazine several years ago and have found it to be the best-tasting stir-fry I’ve tried.
I often use charcoal chuck steak, which is very tender and lean.
I also like that it doesn’t call for any unusual ingredients.
This recipe easily rivals the beef & broccoli found at ANY local Chinese restaurant. So delicious
