Prep Time30 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
4 people

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup soy sauce
  • ¼  cup water
  • 2 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic
  • 1 tsp Grated Ginger
  • 1 tsp Sriracha optional
  • 1 pound Steak Flank or strip. Thinly sliced
  • 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp cornstarch

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and sriracha.
  • Place the steak in a shallow bowl and pour half the sauce over it. Reserve the other half of the sauce for later.  Cover and let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Place the marinated steak into the air fryer basket and cook at 375F/190C for 8 minutes.
  • Toss the broccoli and olive oil together and add it to the basket (on top of the steak). Cook at 375F/190C for an additional 4 minutes.
  • Add the cornstarch to the reserved sauce and microwave it for 1 minute. Whisk to combine and microwave for an additional minute. The sauce should have thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon - if it is too thick, add a splash of water. If it is too thin, cook it for an additional minute.
  • Pour the finished sauce over the cooked beef and broccoli and enjoy. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion, if desired. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
Pro Tip: Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Sometimes air frying is a trial and error process. Check your food as it cooks to learn your air fryer better!  When cooking a new recipe or food items be sure to check your food often to help avoid over/under cooking.
