Chinese Beef and Broccoli soup is a light and savory broth filled with beef tender enough to cut with a spoon, sweet onions, and crisp bites of broccoli; this was the result when my craving for Chinese Beef and Broccoli met Sean’s request for soup a few nights ago. The broth reminded us of beef pho and even my non-broccoli-loving kids ate every bite and then finished off their broth too. Chinese Beef and Broccoli Soup is a two thumbs up hit with my whole crew and it is sure to be on our table many more times this winter!
Over the past few years, I’ve often made this soup with ground beef as well as the steak the recipe originally called for. I’ve updated the recipe below to included alternate directions for using ground beef (or even ground turkey) if that is your preference. Steak is still my first choice, however, the ground meats are both less expensive and a faster cooking option. Whichever way you choose to make it, I am certain it’s going to be a new favorite! {originally published 9/25/14 – recipe notes and photos updated 3/14/18}
