Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

⅓ cup oyster sauce
2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
⅓ cup sherry

1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
¾ pound beef round steak, cut into 1/8-inch thick strips
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • Whisk together the oyster sauce, sesame oil, sherry, soy sauce, sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl, and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Place the steak pieces into a shallow bowl, pour the oyster sauce mixture over the meat, stir to coat well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes in refrigerator.

This recipe is a great weeknight meal that can be on the table in under 30 minutes. It's also a healthy option, with plenty of vegetables and lean protein. Here are some tips for making the best quick beef with broccoli:

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cut of beef. The better the quality of the beef, the more tender and flavorful the dish will be.
  • Make sure the beef is sliced thinly. This will help it cook quickly and evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or wok to cook the beef. This will give the beef plenty of room to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Cook the beef over high heat. This will help to sear the beef and lock in the flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or wok. If you do, the beef will steam instead of sear.
  • Add the broccoli to the skillet or wok towards the end of cooking. This will help to ensure that the broccoli is cooked through but still retains its crunch.
  • Serve the quick beef with broccoli over rice or noodles.
