Categories: Beef, Oriental

Ingredients

• 1 lb flank steak
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 lb broccoli
• 2 tsp sesame seeds
• -
• Sauce
• 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tsp garlic, grated
• 1/2 cup hot water
• 6 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp packed light brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tbsp corn starch
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp sesame oil

Directions

1. Combine all stir fry sauce ingredients in a bowl, stir well to dissolve the sugar, and set aside.

2. Place a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp oil. Add broccoli florets and saute 4-5 minutes, partially covered with lid, stirring or tossing several times until bright green and crisp-tender then remove from pan. Tip: If you prefer softer broccoli (like my family) add a little water before covering with the lid and it will steam cook the broccoli. I also added more time to make it softer.

3. Increase heat to high heat and add 1 Tbsp oil. Add beef in a single layer and saute 2 minutes per side or just until cooked through.

4. Add the sauce, reduce heat to medium/low and simmer 3-4 minutes. It will thicken. Add broccoli and stir to combine. Stir in 1-2 Tbsp water to thin the sauce if desired.

5. I served it over white rice.
