Servings: 4
Ingredients:
2 1/2 tablespoon(s) cornstarch divided
1/4 tablespoon(s) salt
3/4 pound(s) sirloin beef cut into thin slices
2 teaspoon(s) canola oil
1 cup(s) reduced-sodium chicken broth divided
5 cup(s) uncooked broccoli, florets 12oz bag
1 tablespoon(s) ginger root fresh, minced
2 teaspoon(s) minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon(s) red pepper flakes or to taste
1/4 cup(s) low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup(s) water
Directions:
1. On a plate, combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch and salt; add beef and toss to coat.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick wok or large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and stir-fry until lightly browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes; transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
3. Add 1/2 cup broth to same pan; stir to loosen any bits on food on bottom of pan. Add broccoli; cover and cook, tossing occasionally and sprinkling with a tablespoon water if needed, until broccoli is almost crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover pan and add ginger, garlic and red pepper flakes; stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4. In a cup, stir together soy sauce, remaining 1/2 cup broth, remaining 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch and water until blended; stir into pan. Reduce heat to medium-low and bring to a simmer; simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
5. Return beef and accumulated juices to pan; toss to coat. Serve. Yields about 1 1/4 cups per serving.
