Main Dish

Steps

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add steak strips and cook until browned.
Mix beef broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, garlic powder, and ground ginger in a small bowl; add to the skillet with steak.
Add broccoli florets and cook for 4-5 minutes or until broccoli is partially cooked.
Serve over cooked white/brown rice.

Tips for Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Thin, evenly cut beef strips brown quickly; overcrowding the skillet can make them steam and turn chewy.
The sauce should look glossy and lightly coat the beef and broccoli; it thickens as it heats, so avoid letting it reduce too far.
Broccoli is ready when bright green with a little bite; cooking it until very soft can make the florets fall apart.

Drink pairing

Its savory fruit and moderate structure complement the browned beef and savory soy-based sauce without overwhelming the broccoli.
