Beef and Broccoli
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Start by slicing your beef against the grain; in this case, the grain runs vertically, so slicing horizontally would be against the grain.
- 2Marinate the beef with Shaoxing, oil, salt, baking soda, and cornstarch.
- 3Prepare the sauce by combining low sodium soy sauce, water, sugar, cornstarch, and sesame oil in a measuring cup.
- 4Cook broccoli in boiling water just until tender, then shock it in an ice bath.
- 5Pan-fry your beef until it's nicely seared on one side and barely cooked through.
- 6Remove the beef from the pan.
- 7Sauté your ginger and garlic in the same pan.
- 8Add in your sauce once it thickens.
- 9Add the broccoli and the beef to the sauce.
- 10Make sure everything is coated in the sauce.
- 11Garnish with sesame seeds.
