Sous Vide Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Sous Vide Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

So, even though I am not on a special diet or anything like that, I was still inclined to try it and I am glad I did. I’ll gladly do without ordering from the hole in the wall Chinese-esque joint around the corner.

Sous Vide Beef and Broccoli

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb Tx Bar Organics Beef Stew Meat
  • 2 crowns broccoli
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 6 Tbs beef tallow

Sauce:

  • 1 tsp arrowroot powder
  • 1 Tbs beef tallow
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp coconut aminos
  • 3 Tbs Chicken Stock
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Marinade:

  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbs Coconut Aminos
  • 1 tsp arrowroot powder
  • 1 Tbs Sesame Chili oil

Steps:

  • 1. Set your Sous-Vide bath to 132°F/55.5°C
  • 2. Mix marinade ingredients together in a mason jar or a marinating container, add the beef and make sure to coat it evenly. Then remove the air using a vacuum sealer. You can also try to do this in a regular vacuum sealer bag, freezing the beef and marinade together so they don’t come out of the bag when removing the air. Otherwise…
  • 3. Remove from marinator 30 minutes later and pour into a vacuum seal bag and remove the air.
  • 4. Place the vacuum sealed package into the Sous Vide bath. Cook for 12-24 hours.
  • 5. With 4 hours to go, cut broccoli tops from stems.
  • 6. In a medium saucepan, heat 6 Tbs tallow on medium heat and saute broccoli tops and bell pepper for 5 minutes.
  • 7. Remove vegetables from pan and place in a vacuum seal bag making sure veggies are evenly distributed.
  • 8. Place veggies in Sous Vide Supreme and allow to cook for 4 hours.
  • 9. With 10-15 minutes to go, dissolve arrowroot powder in chicken stock to make a paste and set aside.
  • 10. In a saucepan, heat 1 tbs tallow on high heat and stir fry garlic for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium and add arrowroot paste, coconut aminos, chicken stock, salt and pepper. Heat a few minutes until sauce thickens slightly. Turn heat off, but leave pan on the burner.
  • 11. While sauce is thickening, remove beef and veggies from Sous Vide bath and add to the sauce. Stir all ingredients until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
