How thin should I slice the steak?
Slice the steak against the grain into 1/4-inch pieces. Thinner slices cook faster and absorb the teriyaki sauce better.
Can I use frozen broccoli?
Yes, use frozen broccoli florets. Thaw and drain excess moisture first to prevent the stir-fry from becoming watery.
What cut of steak works best?
Flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye work well. Choose a tender cut and slice thinly for quick, even cooking.
How do I keep the broccoli crisp?
Don't overcrowd the pan and cook on high heat. Remove broccoli when tender-crisp, then set aside before cooking the steak.
Can I make this ahead?
Slice the steak and chop vegetables up to 4 hours ahead. Cook fresh to preserve broccoli texture and steak tenderness.
