Why I love this recipe

Beef and Broccoli has become a Chinese American favorite, but Sonoran Spice has added a spicy kick to the traditional recipe! Not only is this recipe quick and convenient but it is budget-friendly, saving me money on my weekly takeout orders!

Trinidad Scorpion pepper comes in the #3 spot for spiciest pepper in the world, with an average rating of 1,200,000 Scoville Heat Units. Due to the extreme heat, it is recommended to handle with caution when cooking, gloves and goggles. This pepper also has many health benefits from increasing endorphins to assisting with digestion!

This Beef and Broccoli is not only easy to make but it has a lot of health benefits. Broccoli itself is high in vitamins and antioxidants. Ginger is also rich in health benefits, fighting infections, and can improve brain function.

This is a great go-to recipe, full of rich flavors and delicious over warm rice!
