Teriyaki Beef with Broccoli over Sticky Rice

Chinese food is a love of mine, and I really want to learn how to cook it. Getting the same flavors I would get when ordering take out, but being able to control the healthiness of the meal. I also LOVE sticky rice and have just discovered the easiest way to make it...thanks to my many Google searches! This recipe was a hit with the entire family, and will now go on our regular menu. However, next time I make it I will try it with chicken just to avoid red meat. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 lb beef sirloin tips (marinate overnight in teriyaki marinade)
1cup uncooked sweet jasmine rice
2 cups broccoli florets
1/4 cup teriyaki marinade
soy sauce (optional)

Directions:
1. Rinse rice in cold water until water runs clear. Soak rice in water for 10-12 hours or overnight, covered.

2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil...here's the trick! Use a pot that can hold a splatter screen over the top and fill so the water is about 3 inches below the screen. Place the rice in a mound on the center of the screen and cover with a stainless steel bowl. Cook the rice for 20 minutes. Remove the bowl and move the rice around and then recover and cook for an additional 20 minutes.

3. Meanwhile grill the sirloin tips until medium, or desired doneness. Cut up in cubes.

4. As soon as rice is done cooking place into bowls, and drop broccoli into boiling water. Blanch for 3 minutes. Remove and toss in teriyaki sauce.

5. Place broccoli and meat over rice. Sprinkle with soy sauce if desired. Enjoy!
