instructions
    1

    Begin by preparing your ingredients. Slice the beef into thin pieces against the grain and set aside. Cut the broccoli into florets and chop the green onions.

    2

    In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, sriracha, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornstarch. Mix well to form your marinade.

    3

    Add the sliced beef to the marinade and let it sit for about 10 minutes to soak up the flavors.

    4

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef and stir-fry it for about 4-5 minutes until it's browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.

    5

    In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and toss in the broccoli florets. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is vibrant in color and slightly tender.

    6

    Return the cooked beef to the pan and pour any leftover marinade over the top. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is well-coated and combined.

    7

    Finally, sprinkle the chopped green onions on top as a garnish and serve immediately.
