Ingredients

1/2 pound flank or sirloin steak

1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 teaspoon cornstarch

Freshly ground black pepper

1 pound broccoli cut into bite-size florets

1 tablespoon high-heat cooking oil canola, vegetable, rice

2 cloves garlic finely minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

FOR THE STIR FRY SAUCE

3 tablespoons oyster sauce

2 teaspoons Chinese rice wine or dry sherry (or omit)

2 teaspoons Chinese black vinegar or young/cheap balsamic vinegar

Instructions

1. If you are using flank steak, slice into thin pieces, ACROSS the grain. If using sirloin, grain doesn't matter. In a bowl, combine the beef with the soy sauce, cornstarch and black pepper. Marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the Stir-Fry Sauce.
3. In a wok or large saute pan, add 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli and cover to steam for 3 minutes. The broccoli should be bright green, crisp tender and you should be able to just pierce the stem with a fork. Drain.
