This recipe is a flavor-packed combination of tender beef, crisp broccoli florets, and savory garlic noodles. It’s a quick and easy weeknight meal that’s sure to please everyone at the table.
Ingredients:
- For the Noodles:
- 8 oz. spaghetti noodles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- For the Beef and Broccoli:
- 1/2 lb. flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- For Garnish (optional):
- Sesame seeds
- Chopped green onions
Instructions:
Marinate the Beef:
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce and cornstarch. Toss to coat and marinate for 10 minutes.
Cook the Noodles:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente (usually about 8-10 minutes). Drain the noodles and set them aside.
Cook the Beef:
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the marinated beef and cook, stirring constantly, until browned on all sides (about 3-4 minutes). Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.
Cook the Broccoli:
Add the broccoli florets to the hot pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
Make the Sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, oyster sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Combine Everything:
Pour the sauce into the pan with the broccoli. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute. Add the cooked beef and noodles back to the pan and toss to coat everything in the sauce.
Serve and Enjoy!
Transfer the Garlic Noodles with Beef and Broccoli to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips:
- You can substitute flank steak with another thin cut of beef, such as skirt steak or sirloin steak.
- If you don’t have oyster sauce, you can substitute it with a mixture of soy sauce and a touch of fish sauce.
- To make this dish vegetarian, simply omit the beef and add another cup of broccoli florets.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
