Serves 4
Ingredients:
1-1/2lb flank or sirloin steak cut very thin (shaved if you can!)
1/4 cup + 1 Tablespoons soy sauce or gluten-free Tamari, divided
2 Tablespoons cornstarch, divided
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup orange juice (for best results use pre-made or from concentrate, not fresh)
2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons orange zest
1 teaspoon sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/4 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
4 cups broccoli florets
1/4 cup water
1 Tablespoon grapeseed or vegetable oil
cooked rice, for serving

1
Directions:
2
Add steak to a large ziplock bag then add 1 Tablespoon each soy sauce or Tamari and cornstarch. Seal then squish to evenly coat and then place in the refrigerator to marinate for 20 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, combine remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce or Tamari and remaining 1 Tablespoon cornstarch with chicken broth, orange juice, rice vinegar, sugar, orange zest, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red chili pepper flakes then set aside.
4
Heat a large wok or nonstick skillet over high heat then add broccoli and water. Stir fry until broccoli is crisp tender, 3-4 minutes then remove to a plate and set aside.
5
Heat oil in wok then add half the marinated beef in one layer. Do not disturb for 30 seconds, or until bottom is golden brown. Flip slices then saute until second side is golden brown. This should go very quickly if your beef is cut thin enough. Also, don't overcook the beef or it can turn tough. Remove to a plate then cook remaining beef and then add to plate.
6
Add the sauce to the wok then cook until thickened and reduced, about 5 minutes. Add cooked beef and broccoli back into the wok then scoop over cooked rice when warmed through.
