Ingredients

Steak:

1 pound flank steak
1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
2 tablespoons avocado oil

Sauce:

½ cup tamari
⅓ cup chicken bone broth
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ tablespoons arrowroot starch
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup or coconut sugar)
¼ teaspoon pepper

For Serving:

Cooked rice
Sesame seeds
Green onion, sliced

Instructions

Put your steak in the freezer for 30 to 45 minutes (this makes it easier to slice). Once ready, cut into thin, 1/4-inch slices.
Whisk together the sauce ingredients (tamari, broth, ginger, garlic, arrowroot starch, sesame oil, honey, pepper) and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add your broccoli and cook, covered, for 5 minutes.
Remove broccoli from the skillet and raise the heat to medium-high. Add another tablespoon of avocado oil.
Add the sliced beef to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 2 minutes on each side.
Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the sauce.
Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to let the sauce thicken, then add the broccoli and toss to coat.
Remove from the heat and serve over rice with a garnish of sesame seeds and green onion. ENJOY!

Notes

This recipe serves four and can be easily doubled if you have more mouths to feed. If so, you may need to cook the meat in batches just to ensure it sears evenly and doesn’t steam. This meal is also great for lunch the next day. So I suggest going ahead and making the full recipe, knowing that lunch or dinner the next night is already taken care of.
