Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 8 oz thinly sliced flank steak and sauté for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender. Remove steak and set aside.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp olive oil and 3 cups broccoli florets. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
Step 3: Add 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 4 minced garlic cloves to the skillet with broccoli. Cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4: Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Stir in 3 tbsp coconut aminos, 1/4 cup water, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the beef and broccoli.
Step 5: Remove from heat and serve immediately while hot.
