   ***INGREDIENTS***

   * 1 lb hanger steak, thinly sliced against the grain
   * 1/4 c rice wine vinegar
   * 1 Tbsp cornstarch
   * 1/4 c peanut oil (or any neutral oil with a high smoking point)
   * 12 oz chopped broccoli
   * 6 Tbsp soy sauce
   * 1/4 c hoisin sauce
   * 1 Tbsp Sambal oelek (or your favorite chili sauce)
   * 2 Tbsp butter
   * 1 Tbsp finely chopped fresh ginger (optional)
   * 2 c rice

   ***INSTRUCTIONS***

   * If you make a big batch, it’s easier to use a wok. A smaller frying pan will work too, but you might have to fry the meat in two batches, so the pan isn’t overcrowded.
   * Start cooking rice according to package instructions.
   * Thinly slice beef against the grain and mix in a bowl with rice wine vinegar, 2 Tbsp soy sauce, and 1 Tbsp cornstarch.
   * Mix the remaining soy sauce with the hoisin sauce, sambal oelek, and ginger, and set aside.
   * Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch broccoli for 2 minutes.
   * Bring peanut oil to a simmer over high heat and add the beef. Stir fry until browned, about 2 minutes. If using a smaller pan, stir fry the beef in two batches, using half the oil each time.
   * Set the beef aside and clean out your pan with some paper towels.
   * Bring 1 Tbsp oil to nearly smoking (high heat, but no smoke) and stir fry your vegetables for 2 minutes.
   * Return the beef to the pan and add the sauce.
   * Stir everything together until nice and smooth, for less than a minute.
   * Add the butter, and within less then another minute, you’re done!
