Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry
- Thinly slice 1½ pounds flank steak against the grain, then toss with 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon soy sauce in a bowl; set aside to marinate for 10 minutes. 8 min
- Whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 3 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, ¼ cup beef broth, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. 3 min
- Mince 4 cloves garlic and grate 1 teaspoon fresh ginger. 3 min
- Thinly slice 3 scallions and set aside for garnish. 2 min
- Timing-sensitive step. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering, then sear the beef in a single layer for 2–3 minutes without stirring, then toss and cook 1 minute more until just browned; transfer to a plate. 5 min
- Timing-sensitive step. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the wok, add the 12 oz broccoli florets, and stir-fry over high heat for 3 minutes until bright green and just tender-crisp. 3 min
- Timing-sensitive step. Push the broccoli to the edges, add the garlic and ginger to the center, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, then mix everything together.
- Timing-sensitive step. Return the beef to the wok, pour in the sauce, and toss everything together over high heat for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and broccoli in a glossy glaze. 2 min
- Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the sliced scallions, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional), and ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional). 2 min
Steamed White Ricebase
- Heat 2 microwavable white rice pouches (8.5 oz each) in the microwave according to package directions, typically 90 seconds each. 3 min
- Tear open the pouches and fluff the rice with a fork, then divide evenly among 4 bowls or plates alongside the stir-fry. 2 min
