Ingredients
  • 1 lb Beef sirloin steak
  • 4 cups Broccoli florets
  • 1/4 cup Coconut aminos
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Arrowroot starch
  • 2 tablespoons Water
  • 2 Green onions
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds

Prepare the Beef

First, slice the beef sirloin steak thinly against the grain. This will ensure that the beef is tender and cooks quickly.

Make the Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, arrowroot starch, and water until the arrowroot starch is fully dissolved. This mixture will thicken the sauce during cooking.

Stir-Fry the Beef

Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the sliced beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Cook the Broccoli

Add the minced ginger and garlic to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the broccoli florets and red pepper flakes (if using) and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp.

Combine and Simmer

Pour the sauce over the broccoli and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Return the beef to the skillet and toss to coat with the sauce.

Serve

Serve the Paleo beef and broccoli stir-fry immediately, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
