soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

Lower sodium options are healthier for those monitoring salt intake.

Place sirloin steak in the freezer for 30 minutes to make slicing easier.

Thinly slice the steak against the grain and remove any excess fat.

In a bowl, combine sliced steak with 1/4 teaspoon baking soda and black pepper, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce; mix well and set aside for a few minutes.

In another bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and cornstarch to make the sauce; set aside.

Chop 3-4 cloves of garlic and set aside.

Preheat a large skillet over high heat with neutral oil.

Add the steak to the skillet in a single layer and cook for about 1 minute per side until browned.

Add garlic to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add broccoli to the skillet and stir-fry with the steak and garlic, cooking until broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.

Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and broccoli, stirring to combine; cook until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy, about 2 minutes.
