Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and 1/4 cup water until smooth; set aside.
Step 2: Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until just smoking, about 1 minute.
Step 3: Add 12 ounces thinly sliced flank steak and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but still tender; remove beef from wok and set aside.
Step 4: In the same wok, add 3 cups broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
Step 5: Add 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves to the broccoli and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 6: Return the beef to the wok, pour in the prepared sauce, and toss everything together. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and broccoli.
Step 7: Drizzle 1 teaspoon sesame oil over the stir-fry, sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, toss briefly, and serve hot.
