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
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup water
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 4 cups cooked white rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar, ground ginger, and water until smooth. Set the sauce aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender-crisp. If needed, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to help steam the broccoli.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and broccoli mixture, stirring to coat everything evenly.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the beef and broccoli thoroughly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot over cooked white rice, if desired.
