Broccoli, Mushroom & Beef Stir-Fry

(7)

This healthy beef and broccoli stir-fry recipe has a Korean-inspired gochujang sauce. Because stir-fries cook up quickly, have all the ingredients prepped and next to the stove before you turn on the heat. Serve over brown rice or rice noodles.

Ingredients

Sauce

  • ¼ cup gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon dry sherry

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

  • 2 teaspoons sugar

Stir-Fry

  • 3 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil, divided

  • 1 pound flank steak, trimmed

  • 4 cups 1-inch broccoli florets

  • 1 bunch scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 4 cups sliced mushrooms

Directions

  1. To prepare sauce: Combine gochujang, lemon juice, ginger, soy sauce, sherry, sesame oil and sugar in a small bowl. Place near the stove.

  2. To prepare stir-fry: Heat a 14-inch flat-bottom carbon-steel wok over high heat. (You'll know it's hot enough when a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact.) Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat. Add steak and stir-fry until just cooked, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large plate.

  3. Swirl in another 1 tablespoon oil; add broccoli and scallions. Stir-fry for 2 minutes.

  4. Swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil; add garlic and mushrooms. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender, 2 to 4 minutes more.

  5. Return the steak to the wok. Add the reserved sauce and cook, gently stirring, until well coated and hot, 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips

People with celiac disease or gluten-sensitivity should use soy sauces that are labeled "gluten-free," as soy sauce may contain wheat or other gluten-containing sweeteners and flavors.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
