Yield 5 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 lb lean trimmed beef strip sirloin (thinly sliced against the grain)
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
5 cups broccoli florets (about a 12 oz. bag)
1 tablespoon fresh minced gingerroot
2 teaspoons minced garlic

Steps:

  • Stir together soy sauce, 1/2 cup broth, 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch and water in a cup until blended and then stir into pan.
