  • Author: Ava Reynolds
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
– 4 cups broccoli florets
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
– ¼ cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– ½ cup beef broth
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 tablespoon honey
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cooked rice or noodles for serving


Instructions

Creating the Easy Beef and Broccoli Recipe is simple when you follow these clear steps:

1. Prepare the Beef: Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain. This ensures tenderness.
2. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and cornstarch. Set aside for about 10 minutes.
3. Blanch the Broccoli: In a pot of boiling water, briefly blanche the broccoli for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside to stop the cooking process.
4. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
5. Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes, or until browned.
6. Add Aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and ginger. Cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
7. Combine Sauces: In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, and beef broth. Pour this mixture over the beef in the skillet.
8. Thicken the Sauce: Bring the sauce to a simmer. Allow it to cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly thickened.
9. Add Broccoli: Gently fold in the blanched broccoli, ensuring it’s thoroughly coated in the delicious sauce.
10. Season: Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
11. Serve: Remove from heat and serve over cooked rice or noodles.

This straightforward process will guide you in making a restaurant-quality Easy Beef and Broccoli in no time at all.
