Ingredients

1 pound beef flank steak or sirloin, sliced thinly against the grain
4 cups broccoli florets
3 tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium recommended
1 tablespoon oyster sauce optional
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon ginger grated
1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Marinate the Beef: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, olive oil, minced garlic, and ginger. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Prepare the Broccoli: While the beef is marinating, wash and cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cook the Beef: Place the marinated beef in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Add the Broccoli: After 8 minutes, add the broccoli florets to the basket with the beef. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and the beef is cooked to your liking.
Serve: Once cooked, transfer the Beef and Broccoli to a serving dish and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Enjoy hot!

Notes

For a spicier version, add some red pepper flakes to the marinade.
Feel free to substitute the beef with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
