- Return the beef to the pan with the broccoli. Add the remaining soy sauce and oyster sauce, along with sesame oil. Stir-fry everything together for an additional minute until heated through.
- Serve over cooked jasmine rice and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for added texture and flavor.
💡 Chef's Notes
Serve the stir-fry in a large bowl to highlight the vibrant colors, and sprinkle sesame seeds liberally on top. Present with a side of jasmine rice in a separate dish, garnished with lime wedges for a pop of freshness.
