Ingredients

• Main Ingredients
• 1.5 lb. flank, sirloin, or the cheaper london broil, sliced thinly across the grain
• 1.5 lbs. broccoli florets
• 6 T. + 2 t. high-heat cooking oil
• 6 cloves garlic, very finely minced or pressed through garlic press
• 1 T. minced or grated ginger
• 1/4 C. chicken broth
• Beef marinade
• 2 t. soy sauce
• 2 t. Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry) or since I don’t ever have wine I used rice wine vinegar
• 1 t. cornstarch
• 1/4 t. freshly ground black pepper
• 1/8 t. sea salt
• 2 t. of Sriracha
• For the sauce
• 2 T. oyster sauce
• 2 T. hoisin sauce
• 2 t. Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry) or since I don’t ever have wine I used rice wine vinegar
• 2 T. soy sauce
• 1/2 C. chicken broth
• 1 T. cornstarch
• 2 t. of Sriracha

Preparation

Step 1

Marinate the beef: Stir together the beef marinade ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the beef slices and stir until coated. Let stand for 10 minutes ( you can let it marinate for longer too while you get the rest of the recipe ready)
Prepare the sauce: Stir together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
Heat a large frying pan or wok over high heat until a bead of water sizzles and instantly evaporates upon contact. Add 2 T. of the cooking oil and swirl to coat. Add the 1/3 of the beef and immediately
spread the beef out all over the surface of the wok or pan in a single layer (preferably not touching). Let the beef fry undisturbed for 1 minute. Flip the beef slices over and cook until nicely browned on both sides and remove to a plate. Repeat this until all beef is cooked.
With the beef removed, lower heat to medium-high heat the 2 t. oil until shimmering.
Add garlic and ginger and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add broccoli and stir fry for 1 minute.
Pour in 1/4 C. of chicken stock
Cover and steam for 2 minutes or until broccoli is tender-crisp, stirring once.
Return beef to pan and stir. Push contents to side of pan.
Pour sauce in center of pan; cook, for 1 to 2 minutes or until thickened, stir sauce only if needed.
Stir beef and broccoli into sauce until coated.
Serve over sticky rice, with lots of Sriracha. ;)
