Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry is a quick and flavorful Asian-inspired dish made with tender slices of beef, crisp broccoli, and a savory, umami-packed sauce. It’s perfect for a weeknight dinner and better than takeout!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
  • 1/4 cup water or beef broth
  • Optional: sliced green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, toss sliced beef with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, and cornstarch. Let marinate for 10–15 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar (or honey), garlic, ginger, and water/broth. Set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Stir-fry broccoli for 2–3 minutes until vibrant. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add remaining oil and cook beef in batches for 2–3 minutes until browned.
  5. Return broccoli to the skillet and pour in the sauce. Stir-fry for another 2–3 minutes until sauce thickens and everything is well coated.
  6. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot over rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Slice beef thinly and against the grain for tenderness.
  • Use tamari for a gluten-free version.
  • Make it spicy by adding chili flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
  • Works great with chicken or tofu as substitutes for beef.
