Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) lean sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) soy sauce
  • 1 tsp (5g) cornstarch
  • 1 tsp (5g) toasted sesame oil
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) water
  • 1 tbsp (15g) honey
  • 1 tbsp (15g) cornstarch
  • 1 tsp (5g) freshly grated ginger
  • 3 cloves (15g) garlic, minced
  • 4 cups (300g) fresh broccoli florets
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) avocado oil
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) water
  • 1 tbsp (15g) sesame seeds
  • 2 stalks (20g) green onion, sliced

Instructions:

  1. Slice the steak into thin strips approximately 1/8 inch thick, cutting against the grain for maximum tenderness.
  2. Toss the sliced beef with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Let marinate for 5-10 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tbsp water, honey, 1 tbsp cornstarch, grated ginger, and minced garlic until the cornstarch is completely dissolved.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp of avocado oil in a wok or cast iron skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add beef in a single layer and sear for 60-90 seconds per side until browned. Remove beef to a plate immediately.
  5. Add the remaining 1 tbsp of oil to the pan. Toss in broccoli florets and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
  6. Pour in 1/4 cup of water and cover with a lid for 1-2 minutes to steam the broccoli until crisp-tender.
  7. Return the seared beef to the pan and pour in the prepared ginger-garlic sauce. Toss over high heat until the sauce thickens and glazes the beef and broccoli.
  8. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
