Stir-fried broccoli with oyster sauce Recipe

Chinese · Side dish · 10 min total

A quick and easy Chinese-style stir-fry that turns broccoli into a savory, tender-crisp side dish with a glossy oyster sauce glaze.

Ingredients

• 1 lb broccoli florets (about 4 cups)
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, water, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
2. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli and blanch for 1 minute. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Pat dry.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add garlic and stir-fry for 15 seconds until fragrant.
4. Add broccoli and stir-fry for 1 minute until bright green and heated through.
5. Give the sauce a quick stir, then pour it over the broccoli. Toss constantly for 30-60 seconds until the sauce thickens and coats the broccoli.
6. Remove from heat, drizzle with sesame oil if using, and serve immediately.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add a pinch of white pepper or a splash of Shaoxing wine.
• Blanching the broccoli beforehand ensures it stays bright green and crisp.
• Serve as a side with steamed rice and your favorite protein.
