Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak, cut into thin strips
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce (or gluten-free tamari)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 5 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 one-inch piece fresh ginger (peeled and grated)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion (sliced)
  • 1 large head broccoli (cut into florets and blanched)
  • cooked rice or cauliflower rice (for serving)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 3 scallions (sliced on the bias)

Instructions

  • Season the beef with white pepper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch, if using. Set aside.
  • In a large nonstick skillet over high heat, warm 1/2 tablespoon of the sesame oil until just smoking. Add the beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is just about cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil to the skillet, then add the onions and cook until they are softened, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the blanched and drained broccoli and cook for 1 minute. Then add the reserved sauce and stir to coat.
  • Return the beef to the skillet and continue to cook until the beef is cooked through and the sauce has reduced slightly, about 3 minutes more.
  • Transfer to serving plates over rice or veggie rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions.
