Beef and Broccoli

16-18 oz. Beef Sirloin, thinly sliced into strips
1 head of broccoli, cut into pieces
3 green onions, chopped, diagnally, white and light green parts only
2 TBSP corn starch or flour
1/4 cup beef stock or water
2 tsp low-sodium soy sauce
4 garlic cloves, pressed
1 TBSP minced or finely shredded ginger
3 TBSP brown sugar
3 TBSP sesame oil
brown rice

Dredge the steak in corn starch or flour.  Place 2 TBSP sesame oil in a hot wok and cook steak for 5 minutes.  While steak cooks in a small skillet add 1 TBSP sesame oil.  Once oil is heated add garlic and ginger and cook for about 15-30 seconds.  Quickly add brown sugar and when it is dissolved add soy sauce and beef stock.  Add sauce to beef & stir.  Add broccoli to beef then cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes.  Remove from heat, stir and add freshly chopped green onions on top.  

This makes 4 servings.  I serve it over 1/2 cup white rice.  Each serving, with rice contained 250 mg of sodium.
