Savory Beef and Broccoli Lo Mein

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Noodles

1. Cook lo mein noodles according to the package directions until al dente.
2. Drain, rinse briefly under cold water to stop cooking, and set aside.

2️⃣ Marinate the Beef

1. In a medium bowl, toss sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and cornstarch until evenly coated.
2. Let it sit while prepping the rest of the ingredients—this step helps tenderize and seal in the juices.

3️⃣ Sear the Beef

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.
2. Add beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until browned and just cooked through.
3. Remove beef from the pan and set aside.

4️⃣ Cook the Broccoli

1. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil.
2. Add broccoli florets, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until the broccoli begins to brighten and slightly soften.
3. Pour in ¼ cup water, cover with a lid, and let steam for 3–5 minutes until broccoli is tender-crisp.
