Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil (I like to use toasted)
1 tablespoon honey
1 clove garlic, finely chopped or grated
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped or grated
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon water
1 pound boneless sirloin, tri tip, flank or skirt steak - sliced into 2 x 1/2 inch strips
1 package (14 ounces) frozen or fresh broccoli florets
3 teaspoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, garlic and ginger.
  • Place the beef in a Ziploc bag (or glass bowl), pouring in half of the sauce mixture to coat the beef. Marinate for either 20 minutes on the counter or covered overnight in the fridge.
  • Whisk the cornstarch and water together and add to the remaining sauce mixture.
  • Heat a wok or large sauté pan over high heat, add 2 teaspoons oil and add the beef. Cook for 4 minutes and remove beef to a clean bowl.
  • Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of oil to the pan and cook the broccoli for 2 minutes.
  • Add the beef back into the pan. Make a well in the center and pour in the sauce. Cook until the sauce is thick and everything is heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Serve over brown rice.
