A classic Chinese-American stir-fry featuring tender beef sirloin and crisp broccoli florets bathed in a rich, savory garlic-ginger soy sauce. Ready in under 30 minutes, this dish delivers bold umami flavors with a satisfying balance of protein and vegetables.
- Slice sirloin thinly against the grain and marinate with soy sauce and cornstarch for 15 minutes — this tenderizes the meat and locks in flavor.
- Blanch broccoli florets in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and set aside to preserve their bright green color and crunch.
- Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry beef until browned, about 2–3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same wok, sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant — don't let them burn.
- Add broccoli and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
- Return beef to the wok. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and the cornstarch mixture.
- Toss everything together until the sauce thickens and coats all ingredients, about 1–2 minutes.
- Garnish with green onions and serve immediately over steamed rice.
