Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp cornstarch, and 2 tbsp water until smooth. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add 1 lb thinly sliced flank steak and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender. Remove beef and set aside.
Step 3: Add remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the skillet. Toss in 4 cups broccoli florets and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until bright green and just tender.
Step 4: Add 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves to the broccoli. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5: Return beef to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the beef and broccoli.
Step 6: Drizzle 1 tsp sesame oil over the stir-fry, sprinkle 2 sliced green onions on top, and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
