Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Lo mein noodles
- 1 lb Beef sirloin or flank steak
- 3 cups Broccoli florets
- 0.3333 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 2 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp Ginger, minced
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
Slice the beef thinly against the grain and season with black pepper. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water into a slurry. Add the slurry to the beef and toss to coat evenly.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir-fry the minced garlic and ginger for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set the sauce aside.
Return the beef to the skillet, along with the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over the ingredients and toss everything together to coat evenly.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes, until everything is heated through and the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately. Enjoy your Fantastic Skillet Beef and Broccoli Lo Mein!
