BEEF AND BROCCOLI



Beef and Broccoli image

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound broccoli florets
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch, divided
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pound flank steak
1/3 cup beef or chicken stock
2 teaspoons rice wine
1/4 cup oyster sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Microwave the broccoli in a glass bowl covered with plastic wrap (holes poked for ventilation), about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon cornstarch and baking soda. Slice the beef against the grain into thin strips and add it to your marinade. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes, or as long as overnight in the refrigerator.
  • In a separate small bowl, stir together the stock, rice wine, oyster sauce and remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
  • Heat a wok or large skillet on high heat and add the oil. When a wisp of white smoke appears, toss the marinated beef and garlic into the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, continually moving the beef so it browns on all sides but is still rare. Once the beef is seared, add the broccoli and cook for an additional minute. Stir in the sauce and keep it all moving. Don't be afraid to scrape any bits off the bottom of the pan before they start to burn. Once the sauce has turned into a nice thick glaze, about 1 minute, serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Select the Right Beef: Choose flank steak, skirt steak, or tenderloin for a tender and flavorful stir-fry. Slice the beef against the grain for maximum tenderness.
  • Tenderize the Beef: To further tenderize the beef, consider marinating it in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and cornstarch for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Quick Stir-Frying: Ensure your wok or large skillet is very hot before adding the beef. Cook the beef in small batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
  • Flavorful Marinade: For an extra burst of flavor, marinate the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, oyster sauce, and sesame oil for at least 30 minutes.
  • Crispy Broccoli: To achieve crispy broccoli florets, blanch them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes before adding them to the stir-fry.
  • Sauce Consistency: If you prefer a thicker sauce, add cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) towards the end of cooking and stir until the sauce thickens.
