THE BEST EASY BEEF AND BROCCOLI STIR-FRY
I clipped this recipe from Taste of Home magazine several years ago and have found it to be the best-tasting easy beef and broccoli stir-fry. It is credited to Ruth Stahl. I often use charcoal chuck steak, which is very tender and lean. I also like that it doesn't call for any unusual ingredients.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Chop and prepare all of your ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you save time and avoid scrambling.
- Use a large skillet or wok: This will ensure that your ingredients have enough room to cook evenly.
- Heat your skillet or wok over high heat: This will help to sear the meat and vegetables and prevent them from sticking.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet or wok: If you do, the food will not cook evenly.
- Stir-fry in batches: If you are cooking a large amount of food, cook it in batches to prevent overcrowding.
- Use a spatula to stir-fry: This will help you to avoid breaking up the meat and vegetables.
- Cook the meat until it is browned: This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming tough.
- Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: This will help to preserve their nutrients and flavor.
- Add the sauce at the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the sauce from burning.
