2 tablespoons minced garlic
4 teaspoons grated ginger
4 teaspoons Chinese black vinegar (I used dark red wine vinegar)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 teaspoons hoisin sauce
3 teaspoons orange blossom honey
4 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
2 pounds beef flap steak, thinly sliced across the grain* (Flank or
skirt steak works)
4 tablespoons cornstarch
2 large heads broccoli, cut into florets and blanched
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
Steamed white rice, for serving (I used brown rice)

Steps:

1. Combine the garlic, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and honey. 2. Mix well and set aside until ready to use. 3. Preheat a wok or a large skillet. 4. Once it has reached a medium heat, add 1/2 of the peanut oil. 5. Dredge the beef in the cornstarch, lightly shake off any excess cornstarch and add 1/2 of the beef to the pan. 6. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. 7. Add 1/2 of the broccoli to the pan and shake frequently. 8. Add 1/2 of the sauce and stir to evenly coat the beef and broccoli. 9. Cook until the sauce thickens about 5 minutes. 10. Repeat the process with the other half of the ingredients. 11. Serve immediately with steamed white rice. *It will be easier to slice the beef in thin strips if it has been partially frozen. Chef's Note: this may be able to be done in 1 batch if using a very large wok or skillet.
