Serves: 1

INGREDIENTS:

• 5 oz. lean beef, thinly sliced
• 1 cup broccoli florets (use as much as desired)
• (Optional) Kale, chopped (to replace broccoli)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. In a wok or large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat.
2. Add the thinly sliced beef to the pan and cook until it’s browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
3. If you’re using broccoli, add the broccoli florets to the pan and stir-fry for a few minutes until they are tender-crisp. If you prefer kale, you can add it now instead of broccoli and stir-fry until wilted.
4. Season the stir-fry with your choice of sauces and seasonings. You can use soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic, ginger, or any other seasonings you prefer. Adjust the amount to your taste.
5. Continue to stir-fry for a couple more minutes until the flavors meld together and the beef and vegetables are evenly coated with the sauce.
6. Once the beef and broccoli (or kale) are cooked to your liking and well-coated with the sauce, remove the pan from heat.
7. Serve the beef and broccoli stir-fry over steamed rice or noodles if desired. Enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
