  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch

  • 1 tsp garlic powder 

  • ½ tsp ground ginger

Recipe Steps

Add 1 cup short or medium grain rice to sieve or colander. Rinse rice until the water running through it is almost clear. Drain well.

Add rice and 2 cups water to medium pot. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat.

Reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, proceed to Step 4.

Whisk ¹⁄³ cup soy sauce, ½ cup water, 2 Tbsp cornstarch, 2 Tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp ground ginger in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Peel half a white onion. Cut into thin slices. Add to large bowl.

Cut or tear 2 crowns broccoli into medium-sized pieces. Add to onions.

Cut 1 lb top sirloin beef in thin slices, against the grain.

Heat 1 Tbsp vegetable oil in skillet or wok over high heat. Add beef and sear (without stirring) for 1 minute. 

Reduce heat to medium. Add onions, broccoli, and 2 Tbsp water. Stir well.

Cover and steam until broccoli is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.

Add sauce. Stir well. Simmer for 5 minutes until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.

Fluff rice with fork and portion into serving bowls. Top with stir-fry. TASTE & SHARE!

Recipe Notes

  • Mix it Up: Have chicken on hand instead of beef? No problem to sub it in. Cashews, bell pepper, and water chestnuts also can be added in for extra crunch and flavor.

  • Kitchen Helper: Freeze your beef for 20 minutes before slicing — the knife will slide through easily to make perfect cuts.

    Flavor Town: Add in a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a spoonful of sambal oelek chili paste to kick up the heat a bit. 

  • Use leftover rice and beef and broccoli to make a quick fried rice — if you have extra veggies on hand, cut to roughly the same size and cook first before adding the already prepared leftovers and rice.

  • Gluten-free: Replace with tamari or use gluten-free soy sauce, such as Kikkoman.

  • Vegetarian: Replace with two large portobello mushrooms. Alternatively, replace with plant-based beefless tips, such as Gardein.
