Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Cooked rice, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sliced beef and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until tender-crisp.
  4. Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the broccoli.
  5. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and broccoli. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately over cooked rice.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the beef in a tablespoon of soy sauce and a teaspoon of cornstarch for 15 minutes before cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference for a sweeter or more savory sauce.
  • You can add other vegetables like carrots or bell peppers for more variety.
