But even better, this recipe is 100% paleo-friendly, which means that it could be a big hit at your next neighborhood get together.

Paleo & HCG Friendly Recipe: Beef & Broccoli Stir Fry

One of the most amazing things about this recipe is its simplicity. With less than 10 ingredients, it’s a dish that is remarkably easy to put together.

Ingredients:

• Lean beef steak (3.5oz)
• Thick-chopped broccoli (2 cups)
• Garlic Cloves (3x)
• Green Onions (3x)
• Low Sodium Beef Broth (2 tbsp)
• Chili Powder (1-3 tsp to taste)
• Chile Flakes (optional)
• Apple Cider Vinegar (1 tbsp)
• Black pepper (to taste)

Directions:

Heat beef broth in a skillet. When sizzling, add steak strips, garlic, broccoli, and chili powder. Cook until the steak is tender and the broccoli crowns are slightly browned. If you like your broccoli a little softer, you can steam it for a few minutes before going into the skillet.

After the steak and broccoli are cooked to your satisfaction, toss in the apple cider vinegar and chopped green onions. If you like heat, dried chili flakes can be added at this stage as well … they add a ton of flavor as well as some texture and color.

Want Even More Flavor? Try This Recipe Grilled

Steak and broccoli are two ingredients that taste amazing when grilled over open flame. If you want to try this one on the outdoor grill, try making a marinade out of all the ingredients listed above. You might need to add some extra liquid, and it would help to chop the garlic a little smaller so the flavor gets infused.

If you don’t have a grill wok, you can wrap everything in a tin foil pouch and throw that directly on the grill.
