Ingredients
- 12 oz, thinly sliced beef sirloin
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup, sliced white mushrooms
- 3 cloves, minced garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add 12 oz thinly sliced beef sirloin and season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender, then remove beef and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp sesame oil and 3 minced garlic cloves, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Step 3: Add 2 cups broccoli florets and 1 cup sliced white mushrooms, stir-frying for 5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Step 4: Return the cooked beef to the skillet and pour in 2 tbsp coconut aminos or soy sauce. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the ingredients.
- Step 5: Serve hot, garnished with an optional sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired.
