Quick Mongolian Beef with Broccoli

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

Method
 

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Using the same wok/pan add the sauce and cook at low temperature whisking it until sauce thickens.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
