Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef flank steak, thinly sliced Choose high quality meat for best flavor.
  • 2 cups broccoli florets Fresh broccoli works best.
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari Tamari is gluten-free.
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil Provides rich flavor.
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced Fresh garlic is recommended.
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced Adds a zesty kick.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional) For added crunch.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by slicing the flank steak into thin strips against the grain to ensure tenderness. Rinse the broccoli and cut it into florets, setting both aside.
Sauce Preparation
  1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce (or tamari), sesame oil, minced garlic, and fresh ginger. Mix well to incorporate the flavors.
Cooking the Beef
  1. In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, add a splash of sesame oil. Once hot, add the beef slices and allow them to sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Don't crowd the pan as you want that perfect sear!
Adding Broccoli
  1. Add your broccoli florets into the skillet and stir everything together for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the broccoli to become bright green and tender-crisp.
Combining with Sauce
  1. Pour the sauce over the beef and broccoli, tossing well to ensure every piece is coated with the delightful, savory mixture.
Serving
  1. Once everything is well combined and heated through, season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve hot.

Notes

For substitutions, use chicken or tofu for different protein options. Avoid overcooking the beef for the best texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month.
