Better than takeout. Low-sugar sauce and cauliflower rice make this genuinely diabetic-friendly.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs flank steak, sliced thin against the grain
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • Sauce: 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp cornstarch, 1 tsp ginger, 3 cloves garlic, 1 tsp low-sugar sweetener
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Sesame seeds to garnish
  • Cauliflower rice to serve

Directions

  1. Marinate beef in 1 tbsp soy sauce and cornstarch for 10 min. Mix remaining sauce ingredients.
  2. Blanch broccoli in boiling water 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Sear beef in a single layer 1-2 min per side. Remove.

Add remaining oil. Stir-fry broccoli 2-3 minutes.

  1. Return beef to pan. Pour sauce over and toss 1 minute until glossy.
  2. Serve over cauliflower rice. Top with sesame seeds.

Notes

Partially freeze steak 30 minutes before slicing for paper-thin cuts. High heat is essential for proper caramelization.
