Ingredients
  • ⅓ cup soy sauce
  • ⅔ cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1 inch piece of fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 lbs well-marbled beef chuck roast, finely sliced
  • 1 lb fresh bite-sized broccoli florets, diced
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • Sesame seeds for garnish, finely sliced
Instructions
  • Add the sauce mixture ingredients to the pot and stir until well combined. Add beef and toss to coat. Secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
  • Using the display panel select the Manual or Pressure Cook function. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 10 minutes. When the time is up, quick release the remaining pressure.
  • Remove ¼ cup of cooking liquid and mix with cornstarch (If you can’t get ¼ cup of cooking liquid out, supplement with water).
  • Stir cornstarch slurry, broccoli florets and toasted sesame oil into the pot for 3-5 minutes until broccoli is tender and sauce has thickened, returning to Sauté mode as needed.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds (optional). Serve over rice or zucchini zoodles.
Notes
  • The Manual and Pressure Cook buttons are interchangeable.
