- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce

Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients by slicing the beef against the grain, cutting the broccoli into bite-sized pieces, and mincing the garlic.
- Marinate the beef by combining it with soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch in a bowl. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and cook the marinated beef until browned on all sides (about 3-4 minutes). Remove from pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add more oil if needed and stir-fry the broccoli for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
- Return the cooked beef to the skillet, add minced garlic and oyster sauce mixed with a splash of water. Stir everything together for another minute until heated through.
