Schezwan Beef and Broccoli

Prep time: 15 Minutes
Cook time: 12 Minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients

• Flank or Sirloin Steak, Thinly Sliced – 1.5 lbs
• Broccoli Florets – 4 cups
• Cornstarch – 2 tbsp (divided)
• Soy Sauce – 3 tbsp
• My Sauce Lab Schezwan – 4 tbsp
• Beef Broth – 1/2 cup
• Garlic, Minced – 4 cloves
• Fresh Ginger, Minced – 1 tbsp
• Brown Sugar – 1 tsp
• Vegetable Oil – 2 tbsp
• Sesame Seeds – for garnish

Directions

1. Toss the sliced beef with 1 tbsp cornstarch and 1 tbsp soy sauce. Let it sit 10 minutes — this is what keeps the beef tender.
2. Whisk the remaining cornstarch and soy sauce with the beef broth, Schezwan sauce, and brown sugar to make the stir-fry sauce.
3. Steam or blanch the broccoli for 2 minutes until bright green, then drain.
4. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Sear the beef in a single layer for 2 minutes without stirring, then toss for 1 more minute. Remove.
5. Add the remaining oil, then the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry 30 seconds.
6. Return the beef and broccoli, pour in the sauce, and toss for 2 minutes until glossy and thickened.
7. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve over rice.
