Ingredients

  • 8 oz Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups Broccoli florets
  • 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch(optional)

    In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, cornstarch (if using), and half of the minced garlic; set aside.
