Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions
- Creating Ground Beef and Broccoli is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
- Start by washing and cutting the broccoli into florets. Slice the onion and mince the garlic and ginger.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula.
- Once the beef is cooked, drain any excess fat from the pan. This step ensures a healthier dish.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Sauté the minced garlic, ginger, and sliced onion until fragrant and softened.
- Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to turn bright green but are still crisp.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and beef broth together until smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the beef and broccoli mixture. Stir well to coat all the ingredients evenly.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, letting the sauce thicken slightly. Stir occasionally.
- Taste the dish and add salt and pepper as needed.
- Once everything is well combined and heated through, remove it from the heat.
