Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry Ingredients
Beef Stir Fry
- Beef Flank Steak, 1.2 to 1.5 lbs.
- For stir-frying, split 1/4 cup of cooking oil.
- 50% of a broccoli head
- a single carrot, sliced
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 2–3 tablespoons coconut aminos 1 tablespoon arrowroot flour, meat marinade, and salt or pepper to taste
Cooking Sauce
- Coconut aminos, 1/4 cup
- either 1/4 cup of water or beef stock
- 1-tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 generous tablespoon of arrowroot flour
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- The steak should first be marinated in coconut aminos, salt, and pepper.
- Broccoli can be sautéed in cooking oil in a pan while the steak is marinating; when it is thoroughly cooked, remove it.
- In the meantime, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small dish. After that, sear the garlic and beef. (This is where we really are multitasking.)Beef should not be overcooked; It will cook quickly if it is thinly sliced.
- Add the carrots to the pan after the beef and garlic have cooked for a few minutes.
- Return the broccoli to the pan after the carrots have finished cooking.
- Finally, add the sauce and stir until it thickens and evenly covers everything.
Notes
* Keep in mind that coconut aminos is already salty when seasoning the chicken. If you are using less beef, use a little less water or stock. For this stir fry, 1/4 cup is used for 1.5 pounds of meat.
