Tips and Notes

  • Great Beef Choices: Use flank steak or sirloin for the best flavor. Slice it thinly against the grain.
  • Broccoli Freshness: For the crunch, choose fresh broccoli. Steamed or blanched will also work if you’re short on time.
  • Storage Tips: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan for the best texture.
  • High Heat Cooking: Make sure your wok or pan is hot enough to get that nice sear on the beef. A bit of oil will help it not stick!
