Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs. lean flank steak, cut into thin 1-inch slices
2 tsp olive oil
24 oz. broccoli florets, raw (not frozen, about 9-10 cups)
3 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 cup low sodium soy sauce *see note
5 cloves garlic, minced or 1 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
2 Tbsp regular brown sugar, unpacked
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced or 1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp Sriracha sauce or chili paste

Steps:

Cut lean flank steak into 1- inch slices. Toss the steak slices in the 3 Tbsp cornstarch.
Heat a large nonstick sauté pan over medium heat. Add 2 tsp oil. Add beef and cook until no longer pink, about 8-10 minutes. Remove it from the pan.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 Tbsp cornstarch, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and ginger, chili paste, and set aside.
Spray the pan generously with non stick cooking spray. Add the broccoli to the pan and sauté until tender, about five minutes. Add the beef back to the pan.
Stir in the sauce. Cook on medium heat, until the sauce has thickened, about five minutes.
Serve with white rice, cauliflower rice, quinoa, or brown rice.
