Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lb Broccoli
  • 2-3 tablespoon Olive Oil divided
  • Kosher Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 2 lb Thinly Sliced Sirloin Tip Steak cut into bite sized pieces

Sauce Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 450F. Drizzle broccoli with a few glugs of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until broccoli is golden brown and fork tender.
  • As the broccoli roasts, mix together all sauce ingredients except the cornstarch. Place cornstarch in a separate bowl, then stir in a few tablespoons of the sauce mixture. Set aside.
  • Add a few glugs of olive oil to wok and heat till shimmering. Add sliced meat and sprinkled with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until no longer pink.
  • Add sauce mixture and bring to simmer. Let thicken for a few minutes, then tip in cornstarch slurry. Simmer another 2 minutes, then stir in roasted broccoli.
  • Serve with a generous amount of sauce over rice. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can get ahead on your meal prep day by:
    • assembling sauce ingredients ahead of time to simply pour in
    • breaking up broccoli florets
    • pre-roasting broccoli florets
  • If you don't want to make an extra dish, I love serving this meal over Seeds of Change's Brown Rice and Quinoa with Garlic
