Ingredients Needed

  • 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Cooked rice for serving

Step By Step Making

  1. In a medium bowl, toss the sliced beef with soy sauce and cornstarch. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the beef in a single layer and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender.
  5. Pour in the beef broth, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
  6. Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Stir everything together to coat the beef and broccoli in the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly and the beef is heated through.
  7. Serve immediately over hot cooked rice. This makes a wonderful meal, and if you’re feeling ambitious, you could even try making your own chewy sourdough bread to go with it!
