Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, sliced thinly against the grain

2 cups broccoli florets, fresh or frozen

1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or sesame oil for an enhanced flavor)

1/4 cup soy sauce (opt for low-sodium for a healthier option)

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/4 cup beef broth (or water)

1 teaspoon sugar

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water. Stir the mixture thoroughly until the beef is evenly coated. Allow the beef to marinate for 15-20 minutes, giving it time to absorb the flavors while you prepare the vegetables.

    Prepare the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, beef broth, and sugar until smooth. This will be your flavor-packed stir-fry sauce. Set it aside for later use.

      Cook the Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated beef, spreading it out in a single layer for even cooking. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until the beef is nicely browned. Once cooked, transfer the beef to a plate and set aside.

        Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Introduce the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring them for about 30 seconds until they release their aromatic fragrance. Add the broccoli florets and sliced red bell pepper to the pan. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp, maintaining a vibrant color.

          Combine: Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture, stirring well to ensure everything is evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and everything to heat through.

            Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle sesame seeds over the stir-fry for a delightful garnish. Serve your Beef & Broccoli Bliss Stir-Fry over a fluffy bed of cooked rice or tender noodles for a wholesome meal.
