Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/2 lb steak, sliced in long strips against the grain (about 8 oz) Slice steak against the grain for tenderness.
  • 2 packets ramen noodles (discard the spice packets) Use plain ramen noodles.
  • 1/2 head broccoli, cut into bite-size florets Keep broccoli bright and tender-crisp.
  • 1/4 onion sliced into medium slices, layers separated
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce For gluten-free, use tamari or coconut aminos.
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced (or 1/4 tsp ground ginger)
  • 2 tsp garlic, minced (about 1 large clove)
  • 3/4 cup beef broth (or substitute chicken/vegetable broth)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch For thickening the sauce.
  • 1 tbsp water (for slurry)
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (vegetable, canola, or avocado oil) For searing the steak.
  • to taste sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil For garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a small bowl combine soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and beef broth. Stir and set aside.
  2. Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and set aside.
  3. Boil ramen according to packet instructions but leave out the seasoning packets. Drain and set aside.
Cooking
  1. Warm a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the oil and let it shimmer.
  2. Add the steak strips in a single layer. Stir constantly and cook quickly so the meat stays tender.
  3. When the beef is halfway cooked, add the sliced onion. Continue to cook over high heat.
  4. Once the beef is just cooked and the onions start to soften, add broccoli florets. Stir-fry until broccoli turns bright green and is just tender-crisp.
  5. Toss in the cooked ramen noodles. Mix well so everything is combined.
  6. Pour the prepared sauce over the skillet contents. Stir to coat noodles, beef, and vegetables evenly.
  7. Stir the cornstarch slurry again, then slowly pour it into the skillet while stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
  8. Remove from heat, drizzle sesame oil and sprinkle sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot.
