Ingredients
Instructions
- Wash and dry produce. In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
- While rice cooks, trim and cut broccoli into bite-size pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
- In a small bowl, combine sweet soy glaze, vegetarian oyster sauce, Sriracha, rice wine vinegar and ¼ cup water. Set aside.
- Place broccoli in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1 tablespoon water. Cover with plastic wrap; microwave until broccoli is bright green and slightly tender, 2-3 minutes.
- Pat steak dry with paper towels; thinly slice against the grain. Place in a medium bowl; season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add cornstarch; toss until fully coated.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add steak; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked to desired doneness, 2-3 minutes.
- In the last minute of cooking, add scallion whites, broccoli and sauce. Remove from heat, then stir until everything is coated in sauce. If stir-fry seems dry, add a splash of water. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Fluff rice with a fork. Divide rice and stir-fry between bowls. Top with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispiness, make sure the steak is patted very dry before coating with cornstarch.
If you prefer a milder heat, reduce the Sriracha to 1/2 teaspoon.
To save time, you can microwave the broccoli while the steak cooks.
FAQ
Can I use a different cut of beef?
Yes, you can substitute with flank steak, sirloin or any tender cut. Slice thinly against the grain for best results.
Is vegetarian oyster sauce necessary?
It adds a unique umami flavor, but you can substitute with regular oyster sauce or a mix of soy sauce and a pinch of sugar.
Can I make this dish gluten-free?
Check that your sweet soy glaze and oyster sauce are gluten-free. Use tamari instead of soy sauce if needed.
