20 Minute Miso Ginger Beef and Broccoli. Easy homemade, stir-fried-style steak in a yummy miso ginger sesame sauce. Serve with broccoli that’s cooked right alongside the steak. The easiest skillet dinner that takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish. Add a side of rice and top with fresh green onions, toasty sesame seeds, and pickled ginger. Great any night of the week!
When I was brainstorming recipes for the new year, I had a few things I wanted to keep in mind. I wanted all of the recipes to be colorful. So, either full of vegetables or tossed in yummy sauces and finished with fresh herbs. I also want to focus on more protein-rich meals this year. And then, of course, I want all of my recipes to be as easy as possible – easy, fun, yet still delicious.
Stir fry dinners have always been on rotation over here. They check off all the above boxes, and they always turn out so delicious.
So for this stir fry, I wanted my sauce to include miso and ginger. Over the holidays, I made my recipe for miso chicken Katsu ramen. I’m in love with the combination of miso, ginger, and sesame when creating Asian sauces. It’s so delicious! I think I made that miso ramen three times over Christmas break, it’s one of my brothers favorite recipes.
Since everyone is still here in Colorado this week, I wanted to create something with a similar flavor profile but a different type of dinner.
This was perfect for everyone!
Here are the details
Step 1: make the sauce
This is simple: whisk everything up in a tall glass measuring cup and the sauce is done.
I love to use tamari, which is gluten-free soy sauce. I also like to use bone broth, but any chicken, vegetable, or beef broth will do the trick. Whisk together the tamari, broth, white miso paste, a tiny amount of honey, red curry paste, ginger juice, and toasted sesame oil.
Now, whisk in the flour (you can also use cornstarch) to help thicken the sauce around the beef.
Step 2: cook the beef and broccoli
Next, start cooking the beef in a big skillet, or if you have one, use a wok. Then add the broccoli, lots of shallots, plenty of ginger, and some garlic. Cook until everything is seared and things are smelling yummy.
Just watch the ginger and garlic, you don’t want them to burn.
Step 3: add the sauce
When things are looking good in the skillet, pour over the sauce. Then simmer, tossing everything up in the sauce until it thickens and coats both the beef and broccoli.
This will take around 5 minutes. Not too long at all.
Step 4: serve
At this point, you can serve the beef and broccoli in the sauce over bowls of rice (I like using jasmine). Lately, I’ve been making my jasmine rice with bone broth. It’s really delicious and also high in protein.
Finish each bowl topped with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, green onions, and sesame seeds.
Perfect for our busiest nights this year.
Hoping you guys love this one as much as we do. I’m already excited to make it again later this week!

Loved it! Super quick.
MmSubstituted petite sirloin for the flank steak since it was on sale and used gluten free soy sauce instead of tamari. Plenty of sauce — often we have to double the sauce to have enough for our liking for the rice.
Hi Louise,
Happy Monday! I appreciate you giving this recipe a try, so glad to hear it was a hit!
Absolutely delicious!
Hey Danielle,
Thank you so much for giving this recipe a try and sharing your thoughts, so happy it worked for you!
The flavor of this was excellent, but my beef turned out a little chewy.
Hey Madison,
Happy Monday! Big thanks for making this recipe and your comment, I love that it turned out well for you!
The saltiest thing I have ever eaten. Used reduced sodium soy sauce, reduced sodium bone broth, and it was still completely inedible.
If you’re going to make this, sub the bone broth for water.
I have a hard time believing anyone tried this recipe before it was published!
Hi Kelli,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, sorry to hear it wasn’t enjoyed!
I used low sodium tamari, but it was too salty for me. So if I make it again, I’d cut the tamari and miso in half.
Hi Kei,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback. So sorry to hear you didn’t love it!
After reading comments about being bland, I omitted the broth and instead used a rice vinegar with a little white wine vinegar. I also used red miso since that’s what I had on hand and used ground beef rather than flank which I think helped hold the sauce together more and I like heat so I used the whole 4 oz jar of Thai red curry paste and the recipe turned out awesome!
Hey Jenna,
Perfect! Thank you so much for making this dish and sharing what worked well for you! Glad this was enjoyed!
We had this tonight and loved it!
Hey Sara,
Awesome! Thanks a lot for making this recipe, I’m so glad it was a hit. Have the best week!
Quick and easy and super tasty. We just used a stir fry beef strip, I’m sure it’s not as good quality as a flank steak but it still worked out really well. I also halved the recipe.
Hey Courtney,
Really appreciate you making this recipe and reporting back. Thrilled it turned out well!
My family loved it! I’ve never cooked with red curry and the heat it brought was amazing!
Hey Liza,
Wonderful! I appreciate you giving this recipe a try and your comment, so glad to hear it was enjoyed!!
I made this tonight and it was superb! The best beef and broccoli recipe by far. The addition of white miso is genius! Thank you for another wonderful recipe!
Hey Marlena,
Happy Sunday!! Love to hear this recipe was a winner, thanks a lot for making it and your comment!!
This was terrible and a disappointing result when using a really nice piece of steak. The sauce was runny and never caramelized and was a bit sour – maybe that was the pickled ginger juice. Won’t be making this again.
Hi Jax,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, so sorry to hear it was not enjoyed! If there is anything that I can help with, please let me know! xx
Can I use brown miso paste, or will it change the flavor quite a bit?
Hi Becky,
That will work for you, I might just reduce the amount. I hope you love this recipe, please let me know if you give it a try! xx
With 1/2 cup soy and 2 tablespoons miso paste, the only flavor this had was salt. Sadly, would not make again.
Hi Terrie,
Thanks for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, so sorry to hear it was not enjoyed! xx
Very quick and easy to make on a weeknight. Pretty flavorful.
Hi Carrie,
Happy New Year!🥳 Thanks so much for trying this recipe and sharing your feedback, love to hear it turned out well for you! xx
