- Pour in water and steam-fry the broccoli until the water evaporates.
- Remove the broccoli from the wok and set aside.
- Cook Beef:
- Reheat the wok or skillet over high heat and add the remaining 2 tbsp vegetable oil.
- Add the marinated beef and stir-fry, allowing it to sear against the pan without stirring too much.
- Once the beef has browned, add the prepared seasoning sauce, stirring to mix well.
