Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 1 lb thinly sliced flank steak and 1/2 tsp sea salt. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but still slightly pink inside. Remove beef and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same wok, add remaining 1 tbsp coconut oil. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 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.
- Step 4: Return beef to the wok and add 3 tbsp coconut aminos, 1/2 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes if using. Stir-fry everything together for 2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly and coats beef and broccoli.
- Step 5: Serve immediately while hot.
