Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon ginger, fresh grated
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 1 medium zucchini, sliced
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips against the grain for tenderness.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add the beef strips to this marinade and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated beef strips to the hot pan and stir-fry until browned. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil and sesame oil. Add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and zucchini slices. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are tender yet crisp.
Return the beef to the pan, combining it with the cooked vegetables. Add the chicken broth to the pan and stir to combine.
Sprinkle in the red chili flakes and black pepper.
Allow everything to cook together for another 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce reduces slightly and coats the beef and vegetables.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve the Low Carb Beef Stir-Fry hot.
