Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless beef sirloin
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 0.5 cup water
• 3 cups cooked jasmine rice
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 carrot, julienned
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 0 to taste salt
• 0 to taste black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef sirloin thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and cornstarch mixed with water, creating a smooth sauce. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and once hot, add the beef slices in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until browned, then flip and brown the other side for another 2 minutes. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the broccoli florets and julienned carrot, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften but still retain a crunch.

Step 5

Return the cooked beef to the pan, pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables, and bring to a simmer. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables.

Step 6

Divide the cooked jasmine rice among four bowls. Top each bowl with the beef and vegetable mixture.

Step 7

Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
