  • Total Time: 25 mins
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced

2 cups broccoli florets

3 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp cornstarch

2 tsp sesame oil

1 tsp grated ginger

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 tbsp neutral oil

Instructions

1. Slice beef thinly against the grain and marinate with soy sauce and cornstarch for 15 minutes.

2. Blanch broccoli in boiling water for 2 minutes, then rinse in cold water.

3. Heat oil in a skillet or wok over high heat. Sear beef in batches until browned, about 1–2 minutes per side.

4. Remove beef. In the same pan, sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.

5. Add oyster sauce, remaining soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons water. Stir and simmer for 1 minute.

6. Return beef and broccoli to the pan. Drizzle with sesame oil and toss everything to coat.

7. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

Slice meat thinly for tender texture.

Use low-sodium soy sauce if preferred.

To make it spicy, add chili flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
