Ingredients
- Beef strips: Use flank steak or ribeye for tender strips that cook quickly.
- Broccoli florets: Fresh broccoli is best, but frozen can be used in a pinch.
- Cheese: Shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack adds a creamy, melty finish.
- Soy sauce: A staple for flavoring the beef and vegetables.
- Garlic: The aromatics that provide depth of flavor.
- Ginger: Fresh ginger adds a fragrant touch, enhancing the overall taste.
- Sesame oil: Adds a nutty flavor to the dish.
- Cornstarch: Helps thicken the sauce for a glossy finish.
- Vegetable oil: Used for stir-frying the beef and veggies.
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, cornstarch, minced garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create the sauce. Set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef strips and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until browned.
- Introduce broccoli florets to the skillet, stirring for another 2 minutes until they are vibrant green and tender yet crisp.
- Pour the sauce over the beef and broccoli, tossing everything together to ensure the sauce coats all the ingredients evenly.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the stir-fry and cover for a minute, allowing the cheese to melt.
- Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles, garnished with sesame seeds if desired!
Notes
