Instructions
- Prepare the beef: Slice beef against the grain into ¼” thickness. Transfer to a large bowl and season with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and ground black/white pepper. Set aside.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine chicken stock/water, soy sauce, sugar, cooking wine and corn starch. Mix with a fork until corn starch is completely dissolved. Set aside.
- Steam the vegetables: In a large wok or skillet with a lid, add water, broccoli and carrots. Heat on medium-high and cover with a lid to allow the vegetables to “steam” with the small amount of water until fork tender (about 4 minutes). Remove vegetables and set aside.
- Fry beef: Wipe any remaining moisture in the wok. Add vegetable oil and heat on medium high. Add garlic and marinated beef. Pan fry until beef is cooked all the way through (about 4 minutes).
- Combine and serve: Add stir-fry sauce and simmer on low until thicken. Add steamed broccoli and carrots. Toss until combined. Serve with steamed rice for a complete meal.
