1 TB olive oil

⅓ cup pickled ginger

1 shallot, thinly sliced

2 cups broccoli florets

1 TB olive oil

½ cup soy sauce

Preparation:

Make the sauce. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Gochujang, garlic, and 1 TB sesame oil, then add the sesame seeds. Set aside.

In another bowl, toss together the sliced bear steak, shallots, pickled ginger, pepper, and flour.

In a wok or skillet on med-high heat, add olive oil. Wait a minute until the oil gets hot.

Add the broccoli and sauté another 3 minutes.
