Instructions
- Thinly slice beef on a bias into ¼-inch thick strips. Tip: if beef is thawed, freeze beef on a plate fully exposed for 45-60 minutes and when it's slightly frozen on the exterior, you will be able to cut it very thinly with a sharp knife.
- Marinate thinly sliced beef with Marinade ingredients (as listed above) for 15 minutes.
- In a bowl, mix Stir Fry Sauce ingredients (as listed above) until well combined and set aside.
- In a wok or pan on medium heat, add oil. Once oil is hot, fry beef until 95% cooked. Remove beef from pan.
- Into the pan, add ginger, garlic, and broccoli. Pour water into pan and mix with broccoli. Cook until broccoli becomes vibrant green, about 1 minute.
- Once broccoli is vibrant green, pour in stir fry sauce and mix together. Let sauce thicken.
- Once sauce is thick, add back in cooked beef and toss everything together. Remove off heat. Serve and enjoy!
