DIRECTIONS

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, water, corn starch, brown sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, ginger and pepper; set aside.
Heat ½ tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add steak and cook, flipping once, until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer the cooked meat to a clean plate. Set aside.
Adjust the heat to medium. Add the remaining ½ tbsp of olive oil to the same pan the meat was cooking in. Add the broccoli to the pan. Cook the broccoli until tender crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Stirring frequently.
Once the broccoli is crisp, add in the cooked meat and soy sauce mixture. Heat for about 3-4 minutes or until the sauce is slightly thickened. Remove from heat and serve!
Top with sesame seeds and serve over rice.
