Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by slicing the flank steak thinly against the grain for optimal tenderness. Combine the sliced beef with soy sauce and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil. Once shimmering, add the marinated beef in a single layer. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through, then set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add more vegetable oil if needed, then toss in the onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
  4. Add the broccoli florets to the pan with chicken broth or water. Cover and steam for 3-4 minutes until vivid green and crisp-tender.
  5. Return the cooked beef to the pan with the sauces. Toss to coat and heat through for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  6. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
