The next time you’re craving takeout, make our homemade beef and broccoli skillet instead. This recipe is super easy and homemade is always better!
I have been in kind of a slump. It’s hot outside, I want to play but I don’t want to clean and cook, but my family still needs to eat so I came to a compromise. Create easy meals that taste better than what you can buy at your local food place. Really this will only take you minutes to make and even if your not an expert cook, you will look like one!

Ingredients
- 2/3 c. soy sauce, divided
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 3 tbsp. packed brown sugar, divided
- 2 tbsp. cornstarch, divided
- salt & black pepper
- 1 1/2 lb. sirloin steak, sliced thinly against grain
