Simple Stir Fry. Ready in 70 minutes or less. Not very spicy, but if you like spice, add 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes. It’s the quintessential beef with broccoli: tender strips of steak and crisp broccoli florets in a rich ginger and garlic sauce. Beef with broccoli is traditionally made with flank steak, which can be a bit tough if not cooked perfectly. I prefer to use a flat iron steak. (Or cheat by marinating tougher cuts of meat overnight in the refrigerator in the following sauce: 1 tsp oil, 1 tbs of Chinese rice wine (or rice vinegar), 2 tsp of soy sauce, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1/4 tsp baking soda & 1 tsp cornstarch. This works because of the addition of baking soda and is used by Chinese restaurants to tenderize the tough cuts of beef that they use. You can use any beef that is on sale from bottom round, chuck to sirloin as long as you cut the steaks against the grain of the meat into 1/4 inch thick strips before your marinate them). Shaoxing wine, or shàoxīng jiǔ (绍兴酒), is a type of Chinese rice wine that hails from Shaoxing, a city in China’s Zhejiang Province famous for rice wine production. It’s a key ingredient in many dishes and will create that authentic restaurant flavor you may have found difficult to replicate at home.

Category: Asian
Yield/Servings: 4
    Prep Time:   30    Cook Time:   10    Total Time:   40

INGREDIENTS:
1 pound flat iron steak, cut into 1/4-inch thick strips (flank steak, skirt steak or hanger steak may be substituted, but won't be as tender)
1/4 cup soy sauce (use gluten-free if needed)
1/4 cup Shaoxing wine (Chinese rice wine) or dry sherry
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/3 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon Asian/toasted sesame oil
4 scallions, whites finely sliced, greens cut into 1/2-inch segments on the diagonal, reserved separately
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound bite-size broccoli florets, from about 1-1/2 pounds broccoli crowns
1/3 cup water

INSTRUCTIONS:

Combine the beef with 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of the Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry or rice vinegar) in a bowl and toss to coat. Let marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or 1 hour in the refrigerator.

Meanwhile, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of soy sauce with the cornstarch and stir with a fork until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry), oyster sauce, chicken broth, sugar, and sesame oil. Stir and set aside.
Combine the scallion whites, garlic and ginger in a bowl and set aside.

When you're ready to cook, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large sauté pan or wok over high heat until smoking. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for 30 seconds, then add the water. Cover the pan with a lid (or tightly with foil) and lower the heat to medium; steam the broccoli until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes, then transfer to a paper towel–lined plate.

Wipe any excess water out the pan. Increase the heat to high and heat another tablespoon of oil in the pan until smoking. Add half of the beef, so that it is in a single layer, and cook without moving until the beef is well seared, about 1-1/2 minutes. Continue cooking while stirring until the beef is lightly cooked but still pink in spots, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate.

Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan and heat until smoking. Add the remaining beef and cook without moving until the beef is well seared, about 1-1/2 minutes. Add the scallion whites, garlic and ginger mixture and cook, stirring constantly with the beef, for about 30 seconds.

Return the reserved beef and broccoli to the pan, along with the reserved sauce and scallion greens and cook, tossing and stirring constantly until the sauce is lightly thickened, about 45 seconds.

Transfer to a serving platter and serve with rice. (YOU DID MAKE THE RICE)
