Instructions
- To easily make the marinade, I used a large shallow tupperware container and combined the lemon juice, dijon, garlic paste, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and Worcestershire.
- Cut your steak into even-sized pieces and add to the marinade. Set aside and marinate for at least 20 minutes for best results!
- Peel and dice your onion and carrots and add to your 3 water to a pot on medium heat.
- When the water has boiled, add in your white rice along with your peas. Feel free to add a pinch of salt.
- Simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
- In a skillet on medium heat, add your broccoli, marinated beef and marinade. Cook until the broccoli is tender and the meat is cooked to your preferred temp.
- Remove from heat and serve with a scoop of rice, enjoy! xx
