This Beef and Broccolini Stir Fry is a quick, flavorful dinner that tastes even better than takeout. Perfect for busy weeknights!
Ingredients
Sauce:
- ½ cup beef broth
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- ¼ cup water hot
- ¼ cup soy sauce low sodium
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 ½ tablespoons light brown sugar packed
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated, fresh
- ¼-½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Stir Fry:
- 1 ½ pound flank steak thinly sliced into bite-sized strips
- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil peanut, avocado, olive, plus more as needed, generic cooking oil
- 8 ounces broccolini cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 yellow onion thinly sliced, small
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- green onion thinly sliced, for garnish
- sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the sauce ingredients, whisking well to combine and dissolve the sugar. Place the sliced steak strips into the sauce to marinate while you prepare the vegetables.
- When ready to cook, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet set over high heat. Stir fry half of the steak, reserving the sauce, for 1-2 minutes until no longer pink. Transfer to a clean bowl or plate and repeat with remaining steak, adding more oil if needed.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the wok. Add broccolini and onion and stir fry for 3-4 minutes. Add the bell pepper and continue frying for another 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked steak and reserved sauce and stir fry for about 2 minutes until sauce thickens and steak is warmed through.
- Serve over rice or noodles, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds as desired.
