Ingredients

Scale

For the Sauce:

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/3 cup beef broth

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tablespoon grated ginger

1/8 teaspoon cracked red pepper flakes

For the Stir Fry:

2 (3-ounce) packages ramen noodles, seasoning packets discarded

1 teaspoon sesame oil

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

1 pound sirloin steak, trimmed of fat and sliced into 1 1/2-inch strips (about 1/4-inch thickness)

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

3 cups fresh broccoli florets

1/2 cup water

Sesame seeds, garnish


Instructions

  1. Make the Sauce:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce and cornstarch until smooth.
    • Add beef broth, honey, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Whisk well and set aside.
  2. Cook the Ramen:

    • Bring a medium pot of water to boil. Cook ramen noodles for 2-3 minutes, until just tender.
    • Drain and rinse under cold water to stop further cooking. Toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook the Steak:

    • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Season steak with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook for 3 minutes without moving to brown one side.
    • Stir and cook for 2 more minutes, until cooked through. Remove steak from skillet and drain any grease.
  4. Cook the Broccoli:

    • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add broccoli and 1/2 cup water.
    • Cover and steam for 2 minutes, until broccoli is bright green and tender but not mushy.
  5. Combine Everything:

    • Return steak to the skillet along with cooked noodles.
    • Stir the sauce and pour it into the skillet. Use tongs to mix everything together.
    • Cook for 1-2 minutes, until everything is coated and heated through.
  6. Serve:

    • Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds.
