Broccoli Beef

Ingredients 

For the Beef:

• 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the Sauce:

• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the Stir-Fry:

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger
• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 1 small onion, sliced

Instructions

1. Marinate the Beef:

   • Toss the sliced beef with 1 tbsp. soy sauce and 1 tbsp. cornstarch. Let sit for 15 minutes.

2. Prepare the Sauce:

   • In a bowl, mix 1/2 cup beef broth, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp. oyster sauce, 2 tbsp. brown sugar, and 1 tbsp. cornstarch. Set aside.

3. Stir-Fry:

   • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Stir-fry beef until browned and set aside.
   • Add the remaining 1 tbsp. oil, then stir-fry 3 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp grated ginger, and small sliced onion until fragrant.
   • Add broccoli and stir-fry until tender-crisp. (Note: I usually slightly soften the broccoli in the microwave first to make sure it is tender enough. 

4. Combine and Serve:

   • Return beef to the pan and pour in the sauce. Stir until everything is well coated and the sauce thickens.
   • Serve hot with rice.

Enjoy your broccoli beef!
