Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 pounds beef Shoulder Steaks Boneless, cut 3/4 to 1-inch thick

  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cups water, divided
  • 2 packages (3 ounces each) Oriental or beef-flavored instant ramen noodles, broken up
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
  • 4 cups broccoli florets, cut into 1 to 1-1/2-inch pieces
  • Toppings:
  • Toasted sesame seeds, sliced green onions, chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Safe Handling Tips:

  • Wash hands with soap and water before cooking and always after touching raw meat.

  • Separate raw meat from other foods.
  • Wash all cutting boards, utensils, and dishes after touching raw meat.
  • Do not reuse marinades used on raw foods.
  • Wash all produce prior to use.
  • Cook beef until temperature reaches 145°F for medium rare steaks and roasts 160°F for ground beef.
  • Refrigerate food promptly.

Cooking:

1. Heat oil in stockpot over medium heat until hot. Place beef steaks in stockpot; brown evenly. Pour off drippings; season with pepper, as desired.

2. Add 1 cup water, seasoning packets from ramen noodles and ginger; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 1-1/4 to 1-3/4 hours or until beef is fork-tender.

3. Remove steaks; keep warm. Add remaining 2 cups water, broccoli and noodles to stockpot; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, 4 to 6 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender and noodles are tender, stirring occasionally.

4. Carve steaks into thin slices; return to stockpot. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Garnish with toppings, if desired
