Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak, skirt steak, or top sirloin are all good choices for this dish. They are relatively inexpensive and cook quickly.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, garlic, and ginger helps to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
- Cook the beef in a hot pan: This will help to sear the meat and lock in the juices.
- Don't overcook the beef: Beef should be cooked to a medium-rare or medium doneness. Overcooking will make the meat tough and chewy.
- Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli is best for this dish. Frozen broccoli can be used, but it should be thawed and drained before using.
- Cook the broccoli until it is tender-crisp: Broccoli should be cooked until it is bright green and just tender. Overcooking will make the broccoli mushy.
- Make the sauce: The sauce for this dish is made with a combination of soy sauce, rice wine, chicken broth, and cornstarch. It should be thick and flavorful.
- Serve the dish immediately: Beef and broccoli is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the beef is tender and the broccoli is still crisp.
