Slow Cooker Honey Chili Beef and Broccoli

Slow Cooker Honey Chili Beef and Broccoli

This slow cooker beef and broccoli brings together tender steak strips, broccoli, sliced onion and a glossy honey-chili soy sauce. The preparation is deliberately simple: most of the ingredients cook together, while the broccoli goes in near the end so it does not spend the entire cooking time in the sauce.

Why This Recipe Works

Soy sauce and beef broth form the savory base, honey adds adjustable sweetness, and chili onion crisp oil brings heat and texture. Garlic, ginger and chili powder season the sauce without adding extra preparation steps.

Choosing the Sweetness

Use 2 to 4 tablespoons of honey depending on how sweet you want the finished sauce. The supplied recipe also allows sugar-free brown sweetener as the alternative.

Cooking the Broccoli

Keep the broccoli out during the initial slow-cooking period. Add all 12 ounces for the final 30 minutes, then stir everything well so the sauce coats the beef, onion and broccoli.

Simple Preparation Tips

  • Cut the steak into thin strips before adding it to the slow cooker.
  • Slice the white onion so it distributes throughout the beef and sauce.
  • Start with the lower amount of honey when you prefer a less-sweet sauce.
  • Stir well after the final 30 minutes to thicken and distribute the sauce.
