Ingredients Needed:

• 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons sherry
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound flank steak, trimmed of fat and sliced very thin against the grain
• 3 tablespoons peanut or olive oil
• 1 pound broccoli florets
• 1/4 cup beef broth
• 1/4 cup oyster sauce
• Salt as needed (use sparingly)
• Chow mein, for serving

How To Cook This Beef With Broccoli Recipe:

1. Marinate the meat: In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, cornstarch, sherry, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic. Pour half the mixture over the sliced steak and toss to coat. Set aside the remaining sauce.
2. Cook the broccoli: Heat oil in a heavy skillet or wok over high heat. Add broccoli and stir for about 1 minute. Remove broccoli to a plate.
3. Brown the beef: Allow the skillet to get very hot again. Using tongs, add steak in a single layer. Let it cook for 1 minute without stirring to achieve a good sear. Turn the beef over and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then remove to a clean plate.
4. Make the sauce: Pour the reserved sauce into the skillet along with the beef broth and oyster sauce. Cook on high heat until the sauce begins to thicken.
5. Combine and serve: Add the cooked beef and broccoli back to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Season with a little salt if needed. Serve over chow mein.

Recipe Tips

• Slice steak thin: Cut the steak against the grain so it stays soft and cooks fast.
• Use a very hot pan: A hot pan helps you get a nice brown color on the meat and cooks the broccoli without making it soggy.
• Cook meat in one layer: Make sure the meat is in one layer, so it cooks evenly. If you add too much at once, it will steam instead of brown.
• Prepare everything before cooking: The recipe cooks quickly, so have all your ingredients ready.
• Taste the sauce: If you like the sauce sweeter or saltier, you can add a bit more sugar or soy sauce to make it perfect for you.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers

Storing: Place any leftovers in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
