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 all over 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 the 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, ensure the steak is patted very dry before coating with cornstarch.
Slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness.
If you prefer a milder heat, reduce the Sriracha to 1/2 teaspoon.
