Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Flank steak
- 4 cups Broccoli florets
- 1/4 cup Gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 inch Ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, mix the gluten-free soy sauce, cornstarch, and water. Add the sliced beef to this mixture, stirring to coat the beef evenly. Allow it to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, prepare your vegetables: chop the broccoli into small florets, mince the garlic, grate the ginger, and thinly slice the green onions.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until they are bright green and just tender. Remove the broccoli from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the marinated beef, spreading it out in an even layer. Let it sear without stirring for about 1-2 minutes to develop a nice brown color on one side.
Stir the beef, add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Cook for another 2 minutes until the beef is almost cooked through.
Return the cooked broccoli to the skillet with the beef. Add the sesame oil, salt, and black pepper, stirring everything together for another 2 minutes until the broccoli is heated through and the beef is fully cooked.
Garnish the stir-fry with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve immediately over steamed rice or quinoa if desired.
