- 3
Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil in a small bowl.
- 4
Pour sauce over beef and broccoli, toss to coat. Cook 1-2 more minutes until sauce is sticky.

Tip: Slice the beef thin against the grain for tenderness. The cornstarch coating creates crispy edges that hold the sauce beautifully.
Why Air Fry This?
- ⏱️Ready in 15 minutes vs ~27 in a conventional oven — no preheating needed.
- 🍖Circulating hot air renders fat and seals in juices for a crispier outside and tender inside.
- ⚡Uses significantly less energy than heating a full-size oven for a single batch.
