Easy and great tasting.
No leftovers at our house. Everyone enjoyed this dish. I used fresh broccoli and just cooked it longer.

It was good, but needed more flavor. My sauce was thin as well.

Everyone in my family is a picky eater! They LOVED this stir fry! I added extra top sirloin for my hungry boys! I will definitely make this again!

Fantastic!
I thought it was absolutely fantastic! I chopped up the noodles before tossing them with the beef and broccoli mixture to make it a bit easier. Also, I cooked the vegetables longer so they were not as crisp, but still very good. Definitely going to make this recipe again!!!

Instead of beef, I used chicken - and instead of frozen broccoli I used fresh - this recipe was fantastic - the family just loved it! I'll make it again really soon!

beef & broccoli stir fry
This is an excellent recipe. I did make some changes: used fresh broccoli, steamed, and more soy than teriyaki and chinese noodles. Was awesome. I lived in Hong Kong for a time and this is easily as good as any recipe I learned there. Thanks - try a little dried chinese mushroom (soaked and diced) - goes well with broccoli.

My family loved this meal. We don't really care for teriyaki sauce so I used soy sauce instead. Very good meal
