For an extra layer of flavor, add a splash of Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry to the beef marinade. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, but fresh is highly recommended for the best flavor. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. Some prefer a slightly sweeter sauce. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for added visual appeal.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
In a bowl, gently toss the sliced beef with 1 teaspoon of chicken bouillon granules and 3/4 teaspoon of sugar. Ensure the beef is well-coated. (5 minutes)
02
Step
40 mins
Allow the beef to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, or up to 1 hour, to tenderize and infuse it with flavor. (20-60 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
In a separate small bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of chicken bouillon granules, 1/4 teaspoon of sugar, and the fresh ginger juice. Set aside. (2 minutes)
04
Step
2 mins
In another small bowl, create a slurry by mixing 2 tablespoons of water with the cornstarch until smooth. Add this slurry to the ginger juice mixture and stir well to combine. (2 minutes)
05
Step
2 mins
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the sliced ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. (2 minutes)
06
Step
3 mins
Add the chopped Chinese broccoli (or kale) to the wok and stir-fry for 2 minutes, ensuring it's evenly coated with the oil and ginger. (3 minutes)
07
Step
2 mins
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of water, cover the wok, and steam until the broccoli is cooked through but still retains a slight crispness, about 1 minute. Transfer the cooked broccoli to a serving dish and set aside. (2 minutes)
08
Step
6 mins
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the wok. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until it reaches medium-well doneness, about 4 minutes. Avoid overcrowding the wok; cook in batches if necessary. (6 minutes)
09
Step
3 mins
Pour the ginger juice mixture into the wok with the beef and stir to coat the beef evenly. Return the cooked broccoli to the wok. (3 minutes)
10
Step
2 mins
Cook and stir until everything is heated through and the sauce has slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately over rice or noodles. (2 minutes)
