Description

A quick and easy recipe for Chinese Beef and Broccoli that captures the flavors of takeout with a homemade touch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions

  1. Marinate the sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat a large pan or wok over high heat.
  3. Add the marinated beef and cook until browned, then remove from the pan.
  4. Add the broccoli florets to the pan with a splash of water, cover, and cook for 1-2 minutes until crisp-tender.
  5. Return the beef to the pan and add the sauce mixture (combining soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, and chicken broth) before cooking everything together until well coated.
  6. Serve over rice or noodles, and garnish with sesame seeds.

Notes

Cut beef against the grain for tenderness. Blanch broccoli to keep it crisp. Adjust sauce ingredients to taste.
