Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

2 cups broccoli florets, ideally bite-sized

2 cups cooked jasmine rice, kept warm

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking)

1 teaspoon sesame oil

2 tablespoons water

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 green onions, finely chopped (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sliced flank steak with soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and a light sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss the beef until each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and let the beef marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes while you prep the remaining ingredients.

    Prepare the Broccoli: Heat a skillet or wok over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the broccoli florets. Stir-fry for approximately 3-4 minutes, or until they turn bright green and become tender-crisp. Remove the broccoli from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

      Stir-Fry the Beef: Using the same skillet, add the marinated beef in a single layer to ensure good searing. Allow the beef to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until a nice brown crust forms. After that, stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, or until the beef is completely browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.

        Combine Ingredients: Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, followed by the previously sautéed broccoli. Toss everything together until well combined, ensuring the flavors meld beautifully.

          Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining soy sauce, sesame oil, and water. Pour this mixture into the skillet, stirring continuously to coat the beef and broccoli evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through and the sauce thickens slightly, creating a luscious coating.

            Serve: Serve the sizzling beef and broccoli stir-fry over a generous scoop of warm jasmine rice. For an appealing presentation, top with finely chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds, adding both color and crunch.
