“I made this for my family a few weeks ago and it was a big hit. The broccoli was crisp-tender, and it was a healthy meal with only a small amount of beef going a long way, and adding all the flavor needed.” — a cook, 5.0★
“Made this tonight and it was great, nice combo of flavors.! Great presentation. Did extra garlic as always, this sauce was so good. I will make this again. Thanks Amanda you are making me fat !” — a cook, 5.0★
