Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
- 3 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, honey, ginger, garlic, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Ensure the cornstarch is fully dissolved so there are no lumps in your final sauce.
- Heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the beef slices in a single layer. Cook for about 2 minutes until browned and just cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside on a plate.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan. Toss in the broccoli florets along with a splash of water. Cover the pan with a lid for 1-2 minutes to steam the broccoli until it turns bright green and becomes slightly tender.
- Return the cooked beef to the pan with the broccoli. Give the sauce mixture another quick whisk and pour it over the beef and vegetables. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until the sauce bubbles and thickens into a glossy glaze.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving immediately.
