How to Make Oriental Beef With Broccoli

  1. Slice 1 lb cube steak into 1/4-inch thick strips. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the steak and 2 cloves minced garlic; sauté for 7-8 minutes, or until browned on both sides.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1/4 cup soy sauce. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the steak is cooked through and tender.
  3. Add 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen). If using frozen, no need to thaw. Cook for 5-8 minutes, or until broccoli is tender-crisp.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water to form a slurry. Add the slurry to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 1-2 minutes).
  5. If the sauce is too salty, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to adjust the flavor. Serve immediately over steamed white rice or chow mein noodles.
