Directions

5 steps

Tap a step to mark it done. The screen stays on while you cook.

  1. Get ready

    Start the rice first so it’s done when the stir fry is. Cover the steak and freeze it for 30 minutes so it’s easier to slice thin.

  2. Mix the sauce

    Stir all the sauce ingredients together in a bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.

  3. Cook the broccoli

    • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the broccoli, partly cover, and cook 4–5 minutes, tossing a few times, until bright green and crisp-tender.
    • Move it to a plate.
  4. Sear the beef

    Turn the heat to high and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Lay the beef in a single layer and cook about 2 minutes per side, just until cooked through.

  5. Sauce and serve

    • Pour in the sauce, turn the heat to medium-low, and simmer 3–4 minutes, until it thickens.
    • Stir the broccoli back in.
    • Thin with 1–2 tablespoons water if you like, and serve over rice.
