Ingredients
Scale
450 g beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced
300 g broccoli florets
1 small onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
15 mL vegetable oil
15 mL cornstarch
½ tsp black pepper
80 mL soy sauce
60 mL beef broth
30 mL oyster sauce
15 mL honey or brown sugar
10 mL sesame oil
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 tsp cornstarch
Instructions
Prepare the beef: Toss the sliced beef with 15 mL cornstarch and black pepper until lightly coated.
Make the sauce: Whisk together soy sauce, beef broth, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, and 1 tsp cornstarch.
Cook the broccoli: Heat half the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes. Add 2 tbsp water, cover, and cook for another 1–2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Cook the beef: Add the remaining oil. Spread the beef in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until browned.
Add vegetables: Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes.
Combine: Return the broccoli to the skillet and pour in the sauce. Toss everything together and cook for 2–3 minutes, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables.
Serve: Serve immediately over steamed white rice or noodles.
Notes
For a spicier version, add red pepper flakes to the stir-fry.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables like snap peas or carrots.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
