Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Marinate thinly sliced beef with Marinade ingredients (as listed above) for 15 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, mix Stir Fry Sauce ingredients (as listed above) until well combined and set aside.
  4. In a wok or pan on medium heat, add oil. Once oil is hot, fry beef until 95% cooked. Remove beef from pan.
  5. 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.
  6. Once broccoli is vibrant green, pour in stir fry sauce and mix together. Let sauce thicken.
  7. Once sauce is thick, add back in cooked beef and toss everything together. Remove off heat. Serve and enjoy!
