Garlic Broccoli Beef Stew
Course Soup
Cuisine American
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place the beef stew meat, chopped onion, and minced garlic into the slow cooker.
  • Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce, then add the dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
  • Stir the ingredients to combine, cover the slow cooker, and cook on low for 7 hours.
  • Add the broccoli florets during the final hour of cooking so they soften but stay intact.
  • Stir once more before serving to distribute the broccoli through the broth.

Notes

Add the broccoli only in the last hour to keep the florets from turning mushy. If you prefer a stronger garlic taste, stir in an extra minced clove right before serving. Leftovers keep in the fridge for three days and reheat well on the stovetop with a splash of extra broth to loosen the liquid.
