Instructions

Step 1: Toss 1 lb thinly sliced flank steak with 1 tsp cornstarch and 1/4 tsp black pepper in a bowl until evenly coated.
Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
Step 3: Add remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the wok, then add 3 cups broccoli florets. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Step 4: Add 4 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced ginger to the broccoli; stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5: Return beef to the wok. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp brown sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Pour sauce over beef and broccoli, stirring constantly for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly.
Step 6: Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
