Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb shaved beef or steak, cut into bite-size pieces
- 8 oz broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- Salt & pepper
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- Sesame seeds (optional)
- Cooked rice, for serving
- 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (or 1/3 cup regular)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled & grated
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon chili onion crunch or sriracha
- 1 tablespoon tapioca flour or cornstarch (or 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour)
Instructions
- Whisk all sauce ingredients in a bowl until flour is fully dissolved.
- Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli and 2 tablespoons water. Sauté for 5 minutes until crisp-tender. Remove and set aside.
- Wipe or rinse the skillet. Heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Season shaved beef with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes per side until browned.
- Lower heat to medium. Add the prepared sauce. Stir and simmer until thickened and beef is fully cooked.
- Return broccoli to the skillet, stir to coat with sauce.
- Serve hot over cooked rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
Notes
Double the sauce if you like it extra saucy. Use tamari for a gluten-free option, and substitute beef with thin-sliced chicken, tofu, or mushrooms if needed.
