So Charlie and I made this recipe found on Weight Watchers website and we love it - it is much tastier than that you find at the restaurant and so easy to make! Of course I love broccoli and he loves beef so we both win!
Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry
Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry
Ingredients
2 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch, divided | |
1/4 tsp table salt | |
3/4 pound(s) uncooked lean trimmed sirloin beef, thinly sliced against the grain | |
2 tsp canola oil | |
1 cup(s) reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided | |
5 cup(s) uncooked broccoli, florets (about a 12 oz bag) | |
1 Tbsp ginger root, fresh, minced | |
2 tsp minced garlic | |
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, or to taste | |
1/4 cup(s) low-sodium soy sauce | |
1/2 cup(s) water |
Add 1/2 cup broth to same pan; stir to loosen any bits on food on bottom of pan. Add broccoli; cover and cook, tossing occasionally and sprinkling with a tablespoon water if needed, until broccoli is almost crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover pan and add ginger, garlic and red pepper flakes; stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
In a cup, stir together soy sauce, remaining 1/2 cup broth, remaining 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch and water until blended; stir into pan. Reduce heat to medium-low and bring to a simmer; simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
Return beef and accumulated juices to pan; toss to coat. Serve. Yields about 1 1/4 cups per serving.
