  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated

Notes

For the most flavorful and tender steak, do be sure to cut against the grain. Feel free to cook the broccoli for an extra minute or two if you prefer a more tender vegetable. You can also add in other veggies such as sliced carrots, bell peppers, or mushrooms if desired. Enjoy!
