This beef and broccoli stir fry is ready in 20 minutes, making it perfect for weeknight dinners. Ground chuck has more fat than ground sirloin. It cooks up extra crispy in this easy stir fry without drying out, and the tasty juices are soaked up by the rice. Spread the ground beef in an even layer in the pan to create a nice sear.
