Broccoli Beef Lo Mein Recipe

  • Yield: 4-6 Servings
10 25 35

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3/4 cup bean sprouts
  • 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained
  • 6 ounces vermicelli or thin spaghetti, cooked and drained
  • 2 to 3 cups broccoli florets, cooked
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup oyster sauce, optional
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger

Directions

  • In a large skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add bean sprouts, mushrooms and water chestnuts. Cook and stir for 3-5 minutes. Stir in the vermicelli, broccoli, soy sauce, oyster sauce if desired and ginger; toss to coat. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 4-6 servings.

    Select firm broccoli stalks with compact, deep green florets. Store unwashed in an airtight plastic gag in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. One pound of broccoli yields about 3-1/2 cups florets.

This was soooo amazing no kidding...i literally couldn't believe how good this was, and was super easy to make! Not to mention, you don't have to spend an arm and a leg either at the grocery store or at a restaurant! This will be a new staple in my house!!

My family loves this recipe. It taste better then the restaurant with much less sodium. Easy on the budget. Like the above reader I add more broccoli. Kathy

This is one of my very favorite recipes! I have made it many, many times and everyone I've served it to has loved it, too. I keep cans of bean sprouts on hand just for this recipe, in case I can't get to a store. I do add more broccoli (preferably from fresh) than the recipe calls for because I like broccoli, but the taste is great anyway. Joan is right: it is at Least as good as any restaurant variation ever. Thanks!
