Equipment

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound (454 g) shaved steak/beef
  • 1 ½ cups (137 g) broccoli florets sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced

For the sauce:

  • ½ cup (118 ml) low sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce and set aside.
    ½ cup low sodium soy sauce, 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar, 4 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoons grated ginger, 1 tablespoon cornstarch
    A glass measuring cup filled with a marinade containing chopped garlic and soy sauce, placed on a marble surface.
  • In a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot and glistening, add shaved steak to the pan. You may need to do this in batches so it doesn’t overcrowd the pan and steam the steak instead of browning it. Since shaved steak is very thin, you only really need to brown one side then remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat until all steak has been browned, but not cooked all the way through.

  • Reduce heat to medium then 1 teaspoon of oil and add broccoli and red bell pepper. Cook until tender. You may need to add 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet, cover, and allow to steam for 3 minutes to quicken the process.
    1 ½ cups broccoli florets, 1 red bell pepper
    Stir-fried broccoli and red bell pepper slices in a large wok on a marble surface.
  • Once vegetables are tender, add back in the browned steak. Turn heat to medium-high and make a well in the center of the mixture. Add the sauce, stir, and allow to thicken, about 30 seconds. Continue stirring and tossing ingredients in sauce until evenly coated. Remove from heat.
