Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Beef sirloin or flank steak
- 300 grams Broccoli florets
- 120 milliliters Soy sauce
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 15 grams Fresh ginger, grated
- 15 grams Cornstarch
- 60 milliliters Water
- 15 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 5 milliliters Sesame oil (optional)
- 10 grams Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the beef thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, water, and sesame oil (if using) to create the teriyaki sauce. Set aside.
In another small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 60 milliliters of water. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Once the pan is hot, add the beef in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, adding 2-3 tablespoons of water to help the broccoli steam and soften slightly. Remove the broccoli and set aside if the pan becomes too crowded.
Pour the teriyaki sauce into the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and continue simmering for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
Return the cooked beef and broccoli to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat evenly in the sauce and heat through, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles and enjoy!
