Preparation Steps

  • In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. In a separate small bowl, whisk cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Set aside.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef and stir-fry until browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.
  • Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to turn bright green and tender-crisp.
  • Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the broccoli. Bring to a simmer. Gradually whisk in the cornstarch slurry until the sauce thickens.
  • Return the cooked beef to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce. Cook for another minute until the beef is heated through.
  • Serve immediately over steamed rice.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. You can also add other vegetables like bell peppers or carrots.
