Instructions

1. 1
   Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
2. 2
   When the rice is almost finished, whisk broth, cornstarch, soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic powder together in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
3. 3
   Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add beef and cook until browned and juices have evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in broccoli and cornstarch mixture; bring to a boil, then cook until mixture thickens.
4. 4
   Serve over hot rice.
