  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Marinade:

  • 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

Sauce:

  • ½ cup beef stock
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
  • ⅛ teaspoon white pepper

Stir-Fry:

  • 2 tablespoons neutral oil
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag broccoli florets
  • 4 scallions, sliced into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, whisk together cornstarch, soy sauce, oil, and baking soda. Add steak, toss well, and let sit for 10–30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Sauce: In another bowl, combine beef stock, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, dark soy sauce, and white pepper. Stir until smooth.
  3. Cook the Broccoli: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or pan over medium-high. Add broccoli and sauté for 6–8 minutes until crisp-tender. Remove and set aside.
  4. Sear the Beef: Add the remaining oil. Place beef slices in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 1 minute until caramelized. Flip, add garlic and ginger, and cook another 2 minutes.
  5. Combine with Sauce: Return broccoli and add scallions. Pour in the prepared sauce carefully, stirring quickly as it thickens and coats everything evenly. Cook for 1 more minute.
  6. Finish with Sesame Oil: Remove from heat. Stir in sesame oil for aroma and balance.
  7. Serve Hot: Enjoy Beef and Broccoli over steamed rice, fried rice, or noodles.
