BEEF WITH BROCCOLI

I can't believe how good this came out! Very simple to make!

First, marinate the meat: 1 hr

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp sugar

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

1 tbsp water 

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 1/2 lbs flank steak, sliced into thin strips

1. Whisk together the baking soda, sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce, water, and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Toss the steak with the marinade to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour, then proceed below.

1/2 c low-sodium soy sauce ( Don't use regular. It will be way too salty

2 tbsp brown sugar

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp flour

1 tbsp sherry ( I opted out and just put a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar)

3 tbsp vegetable oil

2 heads broccoli, crowns only

1. In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, flour, and sherry until smooth, Set aside.

2. In a large wok or saute pan, heat 2 tbsp of the veggie oil over high heat until simmering.  Add broccoli and saute 3 minutes, stirring often. Transfer broccoli to a plate.

3. Reduce heat to medium-high. Carefully add the remaining tbsp of oil to the hot pan.  Add the marinated meat and half of the sauce mixture and saute for 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink.  Stir the broccoli and remaining sauce. Saute 1 more minute. Serve
