Certainly! Here’s a simple recipe for Beef and Broccoli made in the air fryer:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- Cooked rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Beef:
- In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and olive oil. Add the thinly sliced flank steak to the marinade and let it sit for about 15-20 minutes.
- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a few minutes.
- Prepare the Broccoli:
- Toss the broccoli florets in a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Air Fry the Beef:
- Place the marinated beef slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the beef is cooked and slightly crispy. Cooking time might vary depending on the air fryer model, so keep an eye on it.
- Air Fry the Broccoli:
- Remove the beef from the air fryer and set it aside. Place the seasoned broccoli florets in the air fryer basket and cook for about 8-10 minutes, shaking or tossing them halfway through, until they are tender and slightly crispy.
- Make the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry. In a saucepan, heat the remaining marinade from the beef. Once it starts simmering, add the cornstarch slurry and stir until the sauce thickens.
- Combine Beef, Broccoli, and Sauce:
- Once the broccoli is cooked, add the air-fried beef back into the air fryer basket. Pour the thickened sauce over the beef and broccoli. Gently toss everything together to coat the beef and broccoli evenly with the sauce.
- Serve:
- Garnish with sesame seeds if desired. Serve the beef and broccoli hot over cooked rice or on its own.
