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