Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin (thinly sliced)
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 0.25 cup water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, water, cornstarch, and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned and just cooked through. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. You can add a splash of water to help steam the broccoli if needed.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the broccoli.
Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and broccoli. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients evenly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame oil and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
