Ingredients
- 450 grams beef sirloin, sliced into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 100 milliliters low-sodium beef broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the beef strips with cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce. Mix well to coat the beef evenly and set aside for 10 minutes.
Step 2
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing the remaining 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce with low-sodium beef broth, minced ginger, and minced garlic.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Add the marinated beef strips to the skillet and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until the beef is browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add sesame oil, then add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot. Stir-fry for approximately 5 minutes until the vegetables become tender-crisp.
Step 6
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet, and stir everything together, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and combine flavors.
Step 7
Season the stir fry with black pepper and top with chopped green onions before serving.
Step 8
Serve immediately over a bed of cooked brown rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
