Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pack Trader Joe’s beef and broccoli (24 ounces)
- Garlic powder: Start with 1/4 teaspoon, adjust to taste.
- Ginger: Use 1/4 teaspoon if powdered, or 1 tablespoon freshly grated.
- Soy sauce: Begin with 1 tablespoon, adjust for desired saltiness and flavor.
- Additional vegetables: About 1/2 cup of each added vegetable, such as bell peppers or mushrooms, is a good starting point for a single package of the meal.
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This ensures a quick and even cooking process.
- Separate the beef and broccoli from the package. If they’re stuck together, gently break them apart to ensure even cooking.
- Place the beef in the air fryer basket. Spread it out in a single layer for optimal air flow.
- Cook the beef for about 7 minutes. This initial cook time starts the process, ensuring the beef gets a nice exterior before adding broccoli.
- Shake the basket gently, then add the broccoli on top of the beef. This layering helps the broccoli steam with the heat from the beef.
- Continue cooking for another 5 minutes. The broccoli should become tender and the beef should be fully cooked through.
- Check the doneness. Both beef and broccoli should be thoroughly cooked. If not, add a few more minutes.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy your meal right out of the air fryer for the best texture and warmth.
Notes
For best results, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. This ensures the hot air circulates evenly, cooking your meal perfectly.
