Dominique for DealiciousCooking

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1/2 medium onion sliced thinly
  • 2-4 cups of broccoli florets
  • 1 pound steak sirloin, flank or tenderloin, sliced thinly
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili sauce I used Sambal Oelek
  • 2 clove garlic grated
  • 1/2 tablespoon ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup beef broth I used TJs
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup green onion sliced
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • On a separate bowl start by mixing the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, beef broth, chili sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and cornstarch. Make sure the cornstarch is completely dissolved. Reserve.
  • Heat up the canola oil and sesame oil on a wok or large pan. Add the onion and garlic. Sauteed at high temperature until slightly brown. Add the steak. Cook for approximately 3 minutes and add the broccoli. Cook 3 more minutes until steak looks cooked. Remove from wok to a separate container.
  • Using the same wok/pan add the sauce and cook at low temperature whisking it until sauce thickens.
  • Place the sauteed beef and broccoli back on the wok/pan mixing it well with the sauce. Add the green onions and sesame seeds. Cook at medium heat for additional 2 minutes.
  • Serve over brown rice, jasmine rice or even couscous.

Notes

This is a kid friendly version but if you like more heat fell free to add another tsp of chili sauce or chili flakes.
