Teriyaki Beef Stir-Fry with High-Protein Edamame
Quick beef stir-fry with a sticky homemade teriyaki sauce, loaded with edamame and served over rice. It's my go-to after a heavy leg day because it's fast and actually fills you up.
Method
Cook the rice according to the packet and keep it covered.
Freeze the steak for 15 minutes, then slice it thin against the grain.
Stir the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, cornstarch mix, and sesame oil together in a small bowl.
Boil the edamame in water for 3 minutes, then drain. Add the broccoli for the last minute so it stays bright green.
Heat half the oil in a large pan over high heat. Sear half the beef for 1 to 2 minutes until browned. Remove and repeat with the rest.
Lower the heat to medium and add the garlic, ginger, and pepper. Stir for 1 minute.
Return the beef to the pan along with the edamame and broccoli.
Pour in the sauce and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until it turns glossy and sticky.
Spoon over rice and top with sesame seeds and spring onions.
Chef's tip
Doubling the recipe? Cook the beef and veg in batches and portion them over rice for lunch. It reheats well, but add the sauce fresh to avoid soggy veg.
