Start by cooking white rice following the package instructions so that it's ready when your stir-fry is done.
Slice the beef into thin, bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, combine all the stir-fry sauce ingredients, making sure to stir well to dissolve the sugar. Set this sauce mixture aside.
In a large skillet, set the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of oil.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and sauté them for 4-5 minutes. Partially cover the skillet with a lid and stir or toss the broccoli several times. Continue cooking until the broccoli turns bright green and reaches your desired level of tenderness. If you prefer softer broccoli, add 2 tablespoons of water before covering with the lid to steam-cook it.
Increase the heat to high and add another 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet.
Lay the beef in a single layer and sauté for approximately 2 minutes per side, or just until it's cooked through. Quickly pull out a piece to test for doneness.
Add the prepared sauce to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 3-4 minutes. The sauce will thicken during this time.
Finally, add the sautéed broccoli back to the skillet and stir to combine with the beef and sauce. If you prefer a thinner sauce, you can stir in 1-2 tablespoons of water.
Serve this delicious beef and broccoli stir-fry over the cooked white rice for a satisfying meal. Enjoy!
