Directions

Set your Instant Pot to the Sauté function.

Once the display reads Hot, add the olive oil.

Season the diced steak generously with salt and pepper.

Working in batches, sear the beef on all sides until nicely browned.

Remove the seared beef to a plate and set aside.

Add the minced garlic, ground ginger, and chili flakes to the pot.

Sauté for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Pour in the beef broth to deglaze the pot, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom.

Return the seared beef to the Instant Pot along with the chopped bell pepper.

Stir to combine.

Secure the lid, set the steam valve to Sealing, and cook on the Stew/Meat setting for 35 minutes.

Once the timer finishes, perform a quick release of the pressure. Carefully open the lid once the pin has dropped.

Stir in the broccoli florets.

Place the lid back on (no need to seal or lock) and let the residual heat steam the broccoli for 5-7 minutes, or until it reaches your desired tenderness.

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve hot.

Don't skip searing the beef in batches. Overcrowding the pot will steam the meat instead of browning it, and you'll miss out on a huge layer of flavor.

Add other vegetables like sliced mushrooms or onions with the bell pepper for extra flavor and nutrients.
