This was really tasty, I used scotch fillet steak and frozen broccoli which I zapped in the microwave a little before using. Delicious meal, thanks for sharing.

This is a very good beef/broccoli recipe, as well as easy. The guys didn't care much for the orange flavor, so next time I will either leave it out or cut back on the zest. Thanks for the recipe!
