Beef and Broccoli
Ingredients
12 ounces fresh broccoli florets (rinsed)
1 1/2 lb beef skirt steak
1 tablespoon canola oil
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon ginger spice blend paste
1/2 cup oyster sauce
1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons lite soy sauce
2 tablespoons dry sherry
Steps
- Cut larger broccoli florets into bite-size pieces; place in microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on HIGH 4–5 minutes or until almost desired tenderness. Meanwhile, slice steak thinly (wash hands).
- Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Place oil in pan; swirl to coat. Add steak, garlic, and ginger paste (wash hands); cook 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until meat is lightly browned. While steak cooks, combine remaining ingredients (except broccoli), in small bowl, until well blended.
- Stir broccoli and sauce mixture into beef. Bring to a boil; cook 2–3 minutes or until sauce thickens and broccoli is desired tenderness.
