Ingredients
  
Marinade
  • 1 lb flank steak or other cheap cut
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ tsp baking soda optional*
Sauce
  • ½ cup beef broth
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
Stir-fry
  • 1 head broccoli cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 4 garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 1 in piece ginger, chopped
Recipe Instructions
 
  • Thinly slice the beef against the grain into 1/4 inch thick slices. Transfer to a small bowl. Add soy sauce, oil, cornstarch, and baking soda is using*. Gently mix well by hand until all the slices are coated with a thin layer of sauce. Marinate for 20 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a medium-sized bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  • Add the oil to a large skillet over medium heat and swirl to coat the bottom. Spread the steak in a single layer, working in batches. Allow to cook without touching for 30 seconds, or until the bottom side is browned. Flip to cook the other side for a few seconds. Stir and cook until the surface is lightly charred and the inside is still pink. Set aside and repeat until all meat is cooked.
  • Add a little oil and broccoli to the skillet. After a couple of minutes, add the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute. 
  • Add ¼ cup of water, bring to a boil, and cover. Steam until the broccoli just turns tender and the water evaporates,1 minute or so.
  • Next, add the steak back in and pour in your sauce. Stir your sauce before adding to mix back in the cornstarch. Cook and stir until sauce thickens, about 1 minute and remove from heat. Serve immediately with white rice.

Notes

*If you need to use a cheaper but toucher cut of beef, for example, brisket or round roast, add ½  teaspoon of baking soda to the marinade and marinate the beef for 30 minutes before cooking. This will result in a very tender and juicy steak.
