Ingredients
- 1 lb top sirloin steak
- 1 lb broccoli
- 2 bunches green onions, about 10
- 8 ounce can of water chestnuts either whole or sliced (I like to slice them myself)
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil possibly a little more
sauce
- 3 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1/2 cup sherry
- 6 Tbsp Tamari soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp sriracha or chili sauce optional
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 Tbsp fresh minced ginger
noodles
- 9.5 oz package of udon or ramen noodles
Instructions
- Put the steak in the freezer for an hour so it will be easier to slice very thinly.
- Whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Trim the ends of the stems from the broccoli. Cut it into bite sized pieces. I chop the stems, too. Trim and slice the green onions into 1 inch pieces, white and green parts.
- Slice the cold steak into 1/8 inch slices, cutting against the grain.
- Heat a tablespoon of the oil in a wok or large saute pan over high heat. When the oil is very hot, brown the beef, working in batches. I let the first side cook, undisturbed, for about a minute, then flip and cook just until there is no more pink. That way you'll get some nice color for extra flavor. Note: don't do all the meat at once, or it won't brown. Add more oil as needed. Remove the beef to a plate.
- In the same pan heat the remaining oil and stir fry the broccoli for about 5 minutes until it is bright green and crisp tender. I will sometimes add a splash of water and cover the wok for a minute or so to get the broccoli a little more tender. Stir in the green onions and remove all to a plate.
- Whisk the sauce well, and add to the same pan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until it darkens and turns glossy and thick.
- Add the meat and veggies back into the sauce and combine well. Heat everything through.
- Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Divide the noodles between 4 bowls. Top with the stir fry, and garnish with sesame seeds.
