Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1Note: The test kitchen's favorite oyster sauce is Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Flavored Sauce. Serve with rice.
2. 2Cut steak into thirds with grain, then slice each third thin against grain. Whisk 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, water, and baking soda together in medium bowl. Add beef, stir to coat, and let sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes.
3. 3Combine scallion whites, 2 tablespoons oil, garlic, and ginger in second bowl. Whisk broth, soy sauce, sugar, remaining 3 tablespoons oyster sauce, and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch together in third bowl.
4. 4Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add beef to skillet and break up clumps with tongs. Cook, without stirring, until beef is browned on bottom, about 2 minutes. Stir and continue to cook until beef is spotty brown and no longer pink, about 2 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.
5. 5Stir in scallion mixture and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk broth mixture to recombine. Add broth mixture and broccoli to skillet, cover, and cook until broccoli is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes, shaking skillet occasionally to redistribute contents. Off heat, stir in scallion greens. Serve.
