How to Make Beef And Broccoli Stir Fry
- In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, ginger, and garlic.
- Add the thinly sliced beef to the bowl and toss to coat thoroughly.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably 4 hours.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch for 2 minutes.
- Drain the broccoli and immediately rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat.
- Remove the beef from the marinade, reserving the marinade.
- Add the beef to the hot wok and stir-fry until almost cooked, about 2 minutes.
- Add the blanched broccoli to the wok and stir-fry until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes.
- Pour the reserved marinade into the wok and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened and coats the beef and broccoli, about 1-2 minutes.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately over cooked rice.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
