This Sheet Pan Beef and Broccoli with Mushrooms couldn’t be more delicious. It’s the ideal sheet pan dinner recipe that’s ready in under 30 minutes. It’s also completely allergen-friendly and suitable for AIP, paleo, and Whole30 diets.
Sometimes we just need a quick weeknight meal that’s not only one pot, but no stir. Am I right? This easy sheet pan meal of beef and broccoli with mushrooms fits that bill. It comes together in under 30 minutes, involves minimal dishes and no standing over the stove.
This might just be the easiest sheet pan dinner and I’m not exaggerating when I say it is absolutely delicious!
Sheet Pan Beef and Broccoli With Mushrooms
For folks with food allergies, celiac disease or for those following protocols like the AIP Diet, saucy meals are often tricky. This is definitely true for meals like beef and broccoli that typically contain top allergens like gluten and soy. Not this recipe!
This one-pan Beef and Broccoli with Mushrooms dinner is allergen-friendly and bursting with flavor. The marinade is made with chives or green onions, cilantro, ginger and garlic. Subtly sweet and salty coconut aminos replaces the traditional soy sauce or tamari sauce for a soy free and gluten-free base. Together, these herbs, aromatics and sauce taste so layered and appear complex even though the ingredients are so simple. What’s not to love about that?
Ingredients
- 1lb piece of beef, sliced into strips – my favorite cut of beef to use for this dish is flat iron steak. I cut the slices about 1/2 inch wide and 1 inch long. You can use any type of beef you like here. I have also made this dish using ground beef!
- Broccoli – don’t throw out the stems! They’re delicious in this recipe and a great way to get some extra fibre in.
- Mushrooms – cremini or button mushrooms work well, but so would portobellos chopped into small chunks
For the marinade:
- olive oil – avocado oil is a great substitute here.
- coconut aminos – this allergy-friendly, soy free and gluten-free substitute for soy sauce adds delicious flavor to this dish
- cilantro – for ultimate ease, use both the leaves and the stems.
- chives – green onions work well here too!
- fresh garlic – peel and toss the whole cloves into the food processor. If you’re using pre-minced garlic, you’ll need about 1.5 tsps.
- fresh ginger – a 1 inch piece, peeled.
- sea salt
Sheet Pan Beef and Broccoli Instructions
- Make a marinade out of coconut aminos, oil, cilantro, chives, garlic, ginger and sea salt.
- Marinate beef with half the marinade for a few minutes while you chop broccoli and mushrooms.
- Spread broccoli and mushrooms evenly on one large or two medium sized sheet pans and cover with remaining half of marinade.
- Add seasoned beef to sheet pan. Ensure that all your ingredients are evenly spaced so that they won’t steam when placed into the oven.
Serving Options and Ingredient Substitutions
- This recipe for Sheet Pan Beef and Broccoli goes really well with so many different sides. Try it with cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles or roasted sweet potatoes. Tolerate grains? This is perfect with rice or quinoa (both OK on the Modified AIP protocol!)
- Don’t like mushrooms? Try swapping them out for thinly sliced carrots instead.
- Cauliflower is a natural swap for broccoli. But asparagus also really well in this recipe. Opt for thicker stems so that they don’t get too wilted in the oven!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes but you’ll likely miss out on the caramelization and browning of the meat that happens in the oven on a sheet pan which is one of my favorite parts of this recipe!
Storage Instructions
Fridge: Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
Freezer: There are several options for freezing here:
- Freeze the marinade on its own. In a mason jar or small glass container, freeze the marinade for up to 3 months. When ready to use, defrost in the fridge and then microwave and add to chopped veggies and meat.
- Freeze marinaded raw meat and veggies. I recommend freezing in a large, flat tupperware or glass container for easy defrosting. Alternatively, place into a large Ziplock bag and lie flat in freezer. Allow to defrost overnight in the fridge and cook per recipe card instructions once fully defrosted.
- Freeze cooked dish. Place cooled dish into a large, flat tupperware or glass container for easy defrosting. Alternatively, place into a large Ziplock bag and lie flat in freezer. Allow to defrost overnight in the fridge and cook per recipe card instructions once fully defrosted

Tried this last night using some shish kebab beef I found in the freezer and it was WONDERFUL – definitely a keeper. Easy no fuss and flavourful dinner! We might add a little more ginger and garlic next time because we do love those flavours, but the recipe as is is well balanced and lovely! Thanks for a great recipe!
10/10 definitely will put this one on repeat! I subbed out the garlic for shallots (because I react poorly to garlic) and I used bottom sirloin (because that’s what was on sale ant the butcher) and it was absolutely delicious. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Love this recipe! How do I make with ground beef? You mentioned this in the post but I wasn’t sure if you add the raw beef to the pan or cook separately?
The same way, just reduce the cook time a bit so it doesn’t dry out!
Britney I’ve made it the way you suggested and it was delicious! I wish I could post a photo of it. Thanks for the idea!
Perfection. This marinade is off-the-charts good. my whole family, including picky young kids, loved it. I served it with sweet potato glass noodles.
We loved it!! Thank you so much for this easy clean recipe! I’m on an extremely restrictive elimination diet with a functional wellness doctor right now. It’s been so hard for me to find yummy recipes (especially easy ones). This one was so good!! My husband and I both ate it all in one sitting. This will definitely go on my dinner rotation now.
Could I make this in the instant pot??
Yes but you’ll likely miss out on the caramelization and browning of the meat that happens in the oven on a sheet pan which is one of my favorite parts of this recipe!
This was AMAZING!! It will be added to our weekly rotation of meals. My favorite were the mushrooms. This marinade was the best I’ve ever used! So good!!
I made with chicken instead of beef and added a few extra minutes. my small Guy is a very selective eater but he loves broccoli and chicken and I love mushrooms. he liked it all I served it with rice noodles in a chicken broth…. loved and my guts are happy. I will make this again for sure. thank you Nicole for giving flava to AIP/PALEO
Comes out great every time!
Oh my gosh! THIS is amazing! I ate half of it straight off the sheet as soon as I took it out of the oven 😊. I can’t say thank you enough for sharing this recipe! I will definitely be making this again and again!!!
Absolutely love this dish; it’s so flavoursome and beautifully balanced. Works with beef meatballs in stead of steak as well. I usually add leafy green vegetables and this time I’ve doubled the recipe and added courgette (zucchini) too. Can’t wait! Thank you 🙂
I made this as part of our Lunar New Year dinner and it was delicious! So easy to prepare, I made the marinade earlier in the day and it took almost no time after that. And my kid loved it too ; ) so a winner all around.
This has firmly become a favourite in our house. It’s also quick and easy popped into the Weber BBQ whilst holidaying in the caravan.
Wow. This dish is beyond fabulous. Just the right amount of flavors and so easy to make.
Super quick and very flavorful!

This was so flavorful! Easy, quick and delicious. Definitely going to make it again, and I sent it to a few friends to make too.
This was excellent! The beef was so tender.
I made this for my family last night! My 4 year old is incredibly picky and loved every last bite. Another winner here! Thank you so much.
Thanks so much for leaving a review Brandy, I’m glad you enjoyed.
Delicious, quick and easy recipe!
Delicious! Made it last night for dinner and can’t wait for today’s leftovers!
This was really, really delicious!!!! My partner said, “You could be eating that in a restaurant and you didn’t even have to go to cooking school to make it!” Thank you for this delicious recipe. Also, I didn’t have enough cilantro, so I ended up doing half basil!
Hi Elizabeth! Thank so much! This one is on repeat at my house and I am definitely going to try with basil:)
yesss! Love me a sheet pan meal. Ive been such a busy bee this past month so having a scrumptious, quick, dinner is amazing. The marinade is super flavorful and even the boyfriend loved it!
Thanks so much for your review, Kendra! I really appreciate you taking the time and happy you and bf found it yummy!!
