This Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker Beef and Broccoli recipe are one of the most popular recipes on Pressure Cooking Today. And it’s no wonder! This dish features tender, thin-sliced beef and broccoli in a rich sauce that is salty and sweet, with just a little heat from the red pepper flakes. It’s better than take-out!

Ingredients

  • Cooked rice, for serving

  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional

  • 3 tbsp. Cornstarch

  • 3 tbsp. Water

  • 1 pound Broccoli florets, diced into bite-size pieces

  • 1/8 tsp. Red pepper flakes

  • 2 tbsp. Sesame oil

  • 1/3 cup Brown sugar

  • 1/2 cup Soy sauce

  • 3/4 cup Beef broth

  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced

  • 1 Medium onion, finely chopped

  • 2 tsp. Olive oil

  • Fresh ground pepper

  • 1 1/2 pounds Boneless beef chuck roast, well trimmed and sliced into thin strips

Method

  • 01
    Season the beef with pepper to taste. Put olive oil in the cooking pot and select Browning or Saute. When the oil begins to sizzle, quickly brown the meat in batches until all of the meat is browned—do not crowd the pot. (Usually, I'll only brown one side of the meat. You don't want to spend a lot of time browning.) Transfer the browned meat to a plate.
  • 02
    Add the chopped onion to the pot. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes, until it starts to soften. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute more.
  • 03
    Stir in the beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
  • 04
    Add the browned beef and any accumulated juices. Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure and set the cooking time for 12 minutes.
  • 05
    While the beef is cooking, place broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup water. Microwave 3 to 4 minutes until broccoli is tender.
  • 06
    When the cooking time ends, turn off the pressure cooker off. Use a quick pressure release. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid.
  • 07
    In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water and stir until smooth. Select Simmer/Saute and add to the pressure cooking pot. Stir well to combine, and continue stirring until the sauce comes to a boil and thickens. Add the steamed broccoli.
  • 08
    Serve over hot, cooked rice and garnish with sesame seeds.
