Beef with Brocolli and Bell Peppers



Ingredients:
Prepared Rice (optional use Coconut Rice)
2 Tbsp corn starch
2 Tbsp. Water
2 Tbsp. Minced garlic
1 Tbsp. Minced fresh ginger (or 1 1/2 tsp. Ground ginger)
1/2 tsp. Garlic powder
1 lb. lean cut steak (such as round steak) sliced thin

1 tsp. Olive oil
1 tsp. Sesame oil

1 tsp. Olive oil
1 tsp. Sesame oil
6 cups broccoli cut up into bite size bunches
1 onion cubed
1 bell pepper cut into large chunks

3 tbsp. Brown sugar
1 1/2 tbsp. Cornstarch
1/2 cup soy sauce




Directions:
Prepare rice.  I like to add 1/4 cup coconut while the rice cooks and a little salt.
In a medium bowl mix 2 tbsp. Corn starch, water, garlic, ginger, and garlic powder until combine.  Add sliced steak and mix to coat.  Set aside.
In large skillet heat 1 tsp olive oil and 1 tsp. Sesame oil on high.  Add steak and cook until done.  Place steak in clean bowl.
Add another 1 tsp olive oil and 1 tsp sesame oil and heat on high.  Add vegetables and cook until still crisp but onions are translucent (about 8-10 minutes).  While cooking stir together sauce - brown sugar, 1 1/2 tbsp. Corn starch and soy sauce.  When vegetables are about done add beef and stir to combine.  Add sauce and sauté 1-2 minutes until sauce is warm and coats the beef and vegetables.
Serve immediately over rice.
Enjoy!




Works without the bell pepper too!
