Ingredients
1 tbsp canola oil
1 1/2 lbs flank steak thinly sliced against the grain
3 c. broccoli florets
1 tbsp corn starch
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tbsp Water
1 tbsp oyster sauce
Sauce:
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1/4 c. soy sauce low sodium
6 cloves garlic minced
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
2 tsp cornstarch
1/2 c. beef broth
How to make Beef and Broccoli
Step 1: Against the grain, thinly slice the flank steak.
Step 2: Place 1 tbsp each oyster sauce, cornstarch, water, and 1/4 tsp baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk well until combined, then add the sliced meat and toss to coat. Set aside.
Step 3: Combine the sauce ingredients (brown sugar, oyster sauce, soy sauce, garlic, sesame seeds, ginger, cornstarch, and beef broth) and set aside.
Step 4: Drizzle a tbsp canola oil or your oil of choice in a hot large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the flank steak in batches and cook for about 2 minutes or until the bottom has browned. Stir and cook further until the beef is browned. This takes another 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 5: To the sauce in the pan, add the broccoli and stir to coat. Put the lid on and let the broccoli cook for about 3 minutes or until bright green and crisp-tender.
Step 6: When done, remove from the heat and give it a final stir. Serve and enjoy!
Notes:
Swap the oyster sauce with 1 tbsp of each soy sauce and brown sugar.
When cutting the flank steak, make sure to slice against the grain.
