Equipment

  • wok or large skillet
  • sharp knife

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef sliced into thin pieces
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons water for steaming broccoli
  • ¼ cup cooking oil

Marinade Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Knorr Liquid Seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Sauce Ingredients

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 teaspoon ginger grated
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions
 

Sauce Preparation

  • Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Stir until the sugar dissolves and set aside.

Beef Marinade

  • Combine the beef with all the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Mix until the beef is evenly coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.

Broccoli Preparation

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a wok or pan over high heat. Stir fry the broccoli for 30 seconds. Pour in 2 tablespoons of water, cover the pan, and steam the broccoli for 1 minute. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Beef Cooking

  • Heat the remaining cooking oil in the same pan over high heat. Fry the marinated beef for about 40 to 90 seconds per side or until lightly browned.

Adding Garlic

  • Add the garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Combining Ingredients

  • Return the broccoli to the pan and toss to combine with the beef.
  • Pour in the sauce mixture. Gently stir and cook over medium high heat for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and broccoli.
  • Transfer to a serving plate. Serve with steamed rice.

Notes

If using a regular skillet instead of a wok, work in smaller batches to keep the heat high enough for proper searing. When making a larger batch, cook the beef in two or three batches to avoid steaming. This also tastes good over egg noodles or lo mein instead of rice.
