1/4 cup soy sauce
2 T. sugar
1/4 cup white grape juice or apple juice (I use apple)
2 T. cornstarch
1 cup water
2 cups fresh broccoli florets (remove stems), cut bite-sized
4 T. vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp. sesame oil (I omit this one!)
Cut round steak into thin 2-inch long strips; set aside. Combine soy sauce, sugar, juice, cornstarch, and water in a small bowl; set aside. In a large skillet, stir-fry broccoli in 2 T. oil for about 5 minutes over medium heat. Do not overcook. Place broccoli in another dish. Pour remaining oil in the same skillet and heat on medium-high heat. Add steak and cook until well-browned on all sides; about 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, not more than 1 minute. Pour soy sauce mixture over meat and cook until slightly thickened. Stir in sesame oil. Remove from heat. Stir in cooked broccoli. Serve over hot steamed rice. Makes 8 servings.
