Ingredients

• 1 pound beef sirloin
• 0.25 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
• 4 cups fresh broccoli florets
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 stalks green onions, chopped
• 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
• 0.25 cup vegetable or beef broth
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by thinly slicing the beef sirloin across the grain into bite-sized strips. This ensures that the beef remains tender during cooking.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 0.25 cup of soy sauce, 0.25 cup of vegetable or beef broth, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Stir until the cornstarch is fully dissolved. This mixture will be used as the stir fry sauce.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the sliced beef to the skillet and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until it is browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside temporarily.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 1 minute to release the aromatics.

Step 6

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until the broccoli becomes vibrant green and slightly tender.

Step 7

Return the beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the prepared stir fry sauce and stir to coat all the ingredients evenly.

Step 8

Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and everything is heated through.

Step 9

Add the chopped green onions and sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper over the dish. Give it a final stir.

Step 10

Serve the sugar-free beef and broccoli stir fry hot, either on its own or over a bed of cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
