Bobby’s Favorite Beef Teriyaki Stir-fry with Broccoli and Peppers
We love how crisp and tasty the ingredients in this dish turn out when you stir-fry them. Stir-frying is a great way to make a healthy meal. And using fresh ginger adds an irresistible kick—as well as an aroma that will call everybody to the table. Put on a pot of white rice as you start cooking, and dinner will be as fast as it is flavorful.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the beef and 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce. Cover and let marinate for at least 20 minutes and up to 4 hours. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce and the cornstarch and stir until smooth.
Step 2
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the broccoli for 20 seconds. Drain and run the broccoli under cold water to stop the cooking. Drain well.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat, until a drop of water placed in the skillet sizzles. Remove the beef from the marinade and add it to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the beef is no longer pink. Transfer the beef to a plate.
Step 4
Wipe out the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the red bell pepper, ginger, scallions, and broccoli and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the cornstarch mixture to the pan and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until it begins to thicken. Return the beef, with any accumulated juices, to the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute more, or until the sauce is thickened and the beef is heated through. Serve hot with the white rice.
