Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced against the grain
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • Large skillet or wok
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and minced ginger.
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the sliced flank steak to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned, flipping halfway through.
  4. Once the beef is cooked, add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
  5. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and broccoli mixture. Stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce, cooking for an additional minute.
  6. Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle sesame seeds over the dish.
  7. Serve the teriyaki beef and broccoli hot over rice or noodles.

Notes

Consider marinating the beef in the sauce for 30 minutes before cooking for extra flavor.
