Beef and Broccoli Stirfry
 |
Ingredients
1 1/4 lbs. flank steak thinly sliced 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon vegetable oil divided use 2 cups broccoli florets 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1/4 cup oyster sauce 1/4 cup beef broth or water 1 teaspoon sugar 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil 1 teaspoon soy sauce 1 teaspoon cornstarch salt and pepper to taste |
Directions
Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the broccoli and cook for approximately 4 minutes or until tender. Add the ginger and garlic to the pan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove the broccoli from the pan; place on a plate and cover. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel and turn the heat to high. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper and add them to the pan in a single layer - you may need to do this step in batches. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Add the broccoli mixture back to the pan and cook for 2 more minutes or until warmed through. In a bowl whisk together the oyster sauce, beef broth, sugar, sesame oil and soy sauce. In a small bowl mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water. Pour the oyster sauce mixture over the beef and vegetables; cook for 30 seconds. Add the cornstarch and bring to a boil; cook for 1 more minute or until sauce has just started to thicken. Serve immediately, with rice if desired. |
