Beef and Broccoli Lo Mein

Beef and broccoli is a classic combination in American Chinese food. You'll usually find it served with rice, but we like to stir-fry it with hearty lo mein noodles.

For this recipe you’ll need:


  • 8 ounces dried Chinese egg noodles (lo mein noodles) or linguine
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 pound flank steak, cut into thin slices against the grain
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • 1/2 pound fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons ginger, freshly grated
  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias
      1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles until they are about 3 minutes from being al dente. Add the broccoli florets to the pot with the noodles and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until they are crisp-yet-tender.

      2. Drain well, rinse with cold water, and toss with a splash of grapeseed oil to prevent the noodles from sticking. Set aside.

      3. Mix together the sliced flank steak and oyster sauce. Allow to marinate at room temperature while preparing the remaining ingredients.

      4. To make the sauce combine the chicken stock, soy sauce and sesame oil in a bowl and set aside.

      5. Heat a large wok or sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the grapeseed oil. Sauté the flank streak, stirring frequently until lightly caramelized, 3 to 4 minutes.

      6. Add the mushrooms and continue to cook until just tender. Add the garlic, ginger and scallions and cook an additional 30 seconds or until aromatic.

      7. Add the sauce, cooked noodles and broccoli and toss well. Cook until the sauce has thickened and serve.
