Instructions

Marinate the Beef
In a bowl, combine beef with baking soda, soy sauce, oyster sauce, white pepper, water, and cornstarch. Mix well and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare the Sauce
In a separate bowl, whisk together oyster sauce, soy sauces, sugar, chicken broth, and cornstarch until smooth.
Blanch the Broccoli
Bring salted water to a boil. Cook broccoli for 1–2 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Cook the Beef
Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef in a single layer for about 30 seconds per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
Stir-Fry
Add a bit more oil, then sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant. Add broccoli and stir briefly. Return beef to the pan.
Add Sauce
Pour in the sauce and stir for 1–2 minutes until thickened and everything is well coated.
Finish and Serve
Drizzle with sesame oil, mix, and serve hot with rice or noodles. Garnish with green onions if desired.

Notes

Slice beef against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Baking soda helps tenderize the meat quickly.
Don’t overcrowd the pan when cooking beef.
Adjust sauce thickness with a splash of water if needed.
