Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create the perfect Easy Beef and Broccoli Recipe:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Slice the flank steak against the grain into thin strips. Mince the garlic and ginger.
2. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the sliced beef, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes for flavor absorption.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat until hot.

5. Cook the Broccoli: In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for about 2 minutes. Add a splash of water to steam the broccoli just a bit, cooking until vibrant and tender-crisp.
6. Combine: Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the broccoli. Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant and everything is heated through.
7. Serve: Serve immediately over cooked rice or noodles and enjoy!
