Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons cornstarch, divided

• 1⁄2 cup water

• 2 tablespoons water

• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 lb beef for stir fry (mine comes pre- cut like this or you can use flank steak)

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided (or sesame if you want to really go for an Asian flair)

• 4 cups broccoli florets

• 1 small onion, cut into wedges

• 1⁄3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos/ tamari depending on your dietary restrictions)

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

• 1 teaspoon minced

• hot cooked rice

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 2 tablespoons water and garlic powder until smooth. Add beef and toss until well coated.

2. In a large skillet over medium high heat, stir-fry beef in 1 tablespoon oil until beef reaches desired doneness; remove pan from burner to keep warm.

3. Stir-fry broccoli and onion in remaining oil for 4-5 minutes (or until broccoli greens up and onion becomes translucent).

4. Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and remaining cornstarch and water until smooth; add to the pan.

5. Cook and stir for 2 minutes until beef is covered and the liquid thickens and turns into a sauce.

6. Serve over rice with broccoli and onions.
