Tips for Experienced Cooks

Experiment with the balance of the marinade ingredients to tailor the flavor to your liking. For example, if you prefer a slight sweetness, increase the honey slightly. You can also try adding a dash of chili flakes or a few drops of sesame seeds to enhance the complexity of the flavors. Additionally, when stir-frying, control your heat to prevent the garlic and ginger from burning, which can introduce a bitter taste.

Step 1: Prepare the marinade

In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cornstarch, garlic, and ginger. Add the beef slices to the bowl and marinate for 20 minutes.

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger (minced)
  • 1 lb beef slices

Step 2: Cook the beef

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil. Add the marinated beef to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Marinated beef from step 1

Step 3: Cook the broccoli

In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, until crisp-tender.

  • 1 lb broccoli florets

Step 4: Finish the stir-fry

Return the beef to the skillet and stir in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and coats the beef and broccoli.
