  • 2 cups Broccoli florets Cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • 1.5 cups Beef broth Or vegetable broth. Low sodium recommended.
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) Coconut milk Full fat for creaminess, or substitute with more broth for a lighter sauce.
  • 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter Natural unsweetened preferred.
  • 3 tbsp Soy sauce Use tamari for gluten-free option.
  • 1 tbsp Rice vinegar To balance the richness.
  • 1 tbsp Chili oil Adjust to taste for heat.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or a deep oven-safe skillet lightly with oil.
  • In the baking dish, whisk together the beef broth, coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until smooth and well combined.
  • Add the frozen beef dumplings and broccoli florets to the dish. Gently toss them in the sauce to ensure they are well coated, then arrange them in a single even layer. Ensure the dumplings are mostly submerged in the liquid.
  • Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to trap steam. Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the dumplings are tender and cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven. Drizzle with extra chili oil if desired, and garnish with sliced green onions, cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
