Chinese-Style Vegan "Beef" and Broccoli | Easy, Takeout-Style

beef

🥗Healthier: lean beef

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Lean beef is lower in fat; chicken thighs are often more affordable.

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

Lower sodium option for a healthier profile.

Use soy chunks or mushrooms instead of beef.

Prepare the broccoli by cutting it into florets.

Marinate the soy chunks in soy sauce and cornstarch for flavor.

Heat oil in a pan or wok over high heat.

Add the marinated soy chunks and stir-fry until browned, then remove from the pan.

In the same pan, add garlic and ginger, stir-frying briefly until fragrant.

Add broccoli and a splash of water; cover to steam for a few minutes until tender-crisp.

Return the soy chunks to the pan, add soy sauce, and stir to combine everything well.
