    Hi...

    This recipe is really, really good...my hubby especially liked it. See my note at the end of the recipe. It was a little too salty for me so maybe use a little less soy sauce in the sauce.

    Enjoy!

    Beef with Broccoli

    This easy version of the Chinese takeout classic requires only a short marinade to make the beef fork-tender. Serve over white or brown rice. Serves 4.

    Prep Time: 10 minutes + 1 hour for marinade Cook Time: 8 minutes

    First, marinate the meat:



    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

    2 tbsp brown sugar

    4 cloves garlic, minced

    2 tbsp flour

    1 tbsp sherry

    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 tablespoons of the vegetable oil over high heat until shimmering. Add broccoli and saute 3 minutes, stirring often. Transfer broccoli to a plate.

    3. Carefully add the remaining tablespoon 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 in the broccoli and remaining sauce. Saute 1 minute more. Serve.

    PEG’S NOTE: I found this to be a little too salty for me, so maybe cut down on the soy sauce in the sauce mix a little bit. I did use low sodium soy sauce, but still a little too salty for me…but my hubby loved it just the way it was!
