Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown rice
- 2 cups Water
- 1 lb Sirloin steak
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 large Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the brown rice under cold water, then combine it with 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30-35 minutes or until tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
While the rice is cooking, prepare the steak. Slice the sirloin steak against the grain into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with the cornstarch to create a marinade. Add the steak strips to the bowl, toss to coat, and let sit for 10 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the steak in a single layer, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets, red bell pepper slices, and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the steak to the skillet, then add the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sliced green onions.
Serve the stir-fried steak and vegetables over the cooked brown rice. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
