Ingredients

1 lb Flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
1 tbsp Low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Neutral oil
1 cup Low-sodium soy sauce for sauce
1 cup Low-sodium beef broth
2 tbsp Oyster sauce
1 tbsp Brown sugar
1 tbsp Rice vinegar
2 tsp Toasted sesame oil
1 tbsp Cornstarch for sauce
1 tbsp Neutral high-heat oil
5 cup Broccoli florets
3 clove Garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp Fresh ginger, finely grated
2 whole Scallions, sliced
1 cup Uncooked jasmine rice

Instructions

Cook jasmine rice according to package directions.

Toss sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 teaspoon oil. Let stand approximately 10-15 minutes while preparing remaining ingredients.

Whisk all sauce ingredients until the cornstarch dissolves completely.

Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add approximately half the high-heat oil. Add beef in a single layer. Cook in batches if necessary. Sear quickly until browned but not overcooked. Transfer beef to a plate.

Add remaining oil and broccoli. Stir-fry approximately 2 minutes. Add 2-3 tablespoons water. Cover approximately 1-2 minutes to steam the broccoli until bright green and crisp-tender. Uncover.

Add garlic and ginger. Stir-fry approximately 30 seconds. Return beef to the pan.

Stir sauce again immediately before adding because the cornstarch settles. Pour sauce into the skillet. Toss continuously for approximately 1-2 minutes until glossy and thickened. Remove from heat.

Finish with scallions. Serve over jasmine rice.

Chef's Notes & Storage

Thinly slicing beef against the grain is one of the most important steps for tender stir-fry. Cook the beef in batches if necessary. An overcrowded skillet steams the meat instead of searing it. Food safety: Cook beef to desired doneness.
