Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin steak and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned but slightly pink inside. Remove from pan and set aside.
2. Step 2: In the same pan, add 1 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. Step 3: Add 4 cups broccoli florets and 1/4 cup water. Cover and steam for 3-4 minutes until broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
4. Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp almond butter, 2 tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes.
5. Step 5: Return the beef to the pan and pour the almond sauce over it. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and broccoli evenly. Serve hot.
