Ingredients

Beef sirloin

1 pound, thinly sliced

Broccoli florets

4 cups

Garlic

4 cloves, minced

Ginger

1 tablespoon, grated

Soy sauce

1/4 cup, low-sodium

Beef broth

1/2 cup

Erythritol

2 tablespoons

1 teaspoon (optional, for thickening)

Sesame oil

2 tablespoons

Salt

to taste

Pepper

Instructions

1. Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
2. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin to the skillet, searing it until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, erythritol, beef broth, and xanthan gum until well combined.
6. Pour the sauce mixture over the broccoli in the skillet, stirring to coat the broccoli evenly.
7. Return the cooked beef slices to the skillet, mixing them with the broccoli and sauce.
8. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until the beef is heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
10. Garnish the dish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
