Ingredients

• 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tbsp soy sauce

• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1/2 cup beef broth

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, and beef broth. Set aside.
2. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add broccoli and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until bright green. Remove from wok.
