How to Make Beef And Broccoli Stir Fry

**Marinate the Beef:** In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and 1 clove minced garlic. Add 1 lb thinly sliced beef and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
**Prepare the Sauce:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger.
**Stir-fry the Broccoli:** Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 head broccoli florets and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water, reduce heat to medium-high, cover, and steam until crisp-tender (about 3-5 minutes).
**Remove Broccoli:** Remove the broccoli from the wok and set aside.
**Stir-fry the Beef:** Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the wok. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until lightly browned but still slightly pink inside (about 3-5 minutes). Avoid over-stirring; press the slices against the sides of the wok to sear.
**Combine and Simmer:** Add the cooked broccoli back to the wok. Pour the sauce over the beef and broccoli, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens (about 1-2 minutes).
**Serve:** Transfer the stir-fry to a serving platter. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon sesame oil before serving.
**Flavor Tip:** The sugar in the marinade and sauce acts as a flavor enhancer, not just a sweetener.
