Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb beef sirloin (thinly sliced)
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup water
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, hoisin sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Set aside the sauce mixture.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and broccoli, stirring well to coat everything evenly.
Lower the heat to medium and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Drizzle with sesame oil for added flavor and garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
