trader joe’s is my go to for takeout inspired staples. Pair shelf stable sauces with ingredients you can keep in freezer for a rainy day? I’m there!!!

An essential staple in this recipe is arrowroot powder. It’s very similar to cornstarch, when mixed with water and added to a sauce it thickens and gives you that saucy takeout taste.

Instructions

1. mix the sauce together and prepare your rice. I like to do this ahead of time so when it comes to dinner time it’s just a throw and go!
2. get a wok or large pan hot, drizzle with oil, and add broccoli.
3. add about 1/4 cup of water and cover for a few minutes. remove from the pan when broccoli is bright green.
4. in the same pan, add the beef and don’t touch it for a few minutes (the edges will start to crisp up).
5. give it a toss and let cook for about a minute more before adding in the sauce and broccoli. the beef shouldn’t be on the heat alone very long as it will cook quickly!
6. mix arrowroot powder with 1/4 cup of water and mix well.
7. pour into the sauce, stirring everything together. the longer the sauce sits on the heat, the thicker it will be. stay close! and stir.
8. serve with white rice and enjoy!
