Beef and Broccoli

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound sirloin steak (sliced thinly against grain)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/3 cup beef or chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha (optional)
  • 1 head broccoli (cut into florets)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Green onions (thinly sliced, for garnish)
  • Marinade
    • 2/3 cup soy sauce (divided)
    • Juice of ½ lime
    • 3 tablespoons brown sugar (packed, divided)
    • 2 tablespoons cornstarch (divided)
    • Kosher salt
    • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

In a medium bowl, whisk 1/3 cup soy sauce, lime juice, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch until combined. Add steak, season with salt and pepper, and toss until steak is coated. Marinate 20 minutes.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add steak in a single layer, working in batches if needed, and cook until seared, about 2 minutes per side. Remove steak and set aside.

Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch until garlic is coated, then stir in broth, remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar, remaining 1/3 cup soy sauce, and Sriracha. Bring mixture to a simmer.

Add broccoli and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper (if necessary), then return steak to skillet.

Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions before serving.
