Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 g Lean beef sirloin
- 60 ml Low-sodium soy sauce
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 200 g Broccoli florets
- 1 large Carrot, julienned
- 2 cups Brown rice or quinoa, cooked
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 60 ml Water
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
Instructions
1. Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide, and season lightly with black pepper.
2. In a small bowl, mix the low-sodium soy sauce with minced garlic and grated ginger. Add the beef strips to this mixture and let marinate for 10 minutes.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef strips while shaking off excess marinade (reserve the marinade) and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Stir in the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot. Sauté the vegetables for about 4-5 minutes until they are tender yet crisp.
5. Return the beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well to combine.
6. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add this slurry to the reserved marinade.
7. Pour the marinade mixture into the skillet, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables beautifully.
8. Serve the beef strips and vegetables over a bed of cooked brown rice or quinoa. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.
