Servings: 4

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

For the Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos for a lower-sodium option)
  • 2 tablespoons beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon low-carb sweetener (like stevia or erythritol)
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Beef:
    Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain. Set aside.
  2. Make the Sauce:
    In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, beef broth, sesame oil, rice vinegar, low-carb sweetener, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
  3. Cook the Broccoli:
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Remove and set aside.
  4. Cook the Beef:
    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil. Add the sliced beef and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir for another minute.
  5. Combine Everything:
    Return the cooked broccoli to the skillet with the beef. Pour in the sauce and toss everything together. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly and coats the beef and broccoli evenly.
  6. Serve:
    Divide the stir-fry among plates and garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions if desired.
