Directions

Combine the soy sauce, cornstarch, sherry or wine, and honey in a medium sized bowl and marinate the beef in this mixture for 15-30 minutes.

Add the water to a 10-12 inch heavy skillet with a lid and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli, bring to a boil again, cover and reduce heat to steam for about 5 minutes. Broccoli should start to get tender, but still crunchy.

Coat the pan with cooking spray and heat to medium high.

Add the beef, marinade liquid, and garlic. Stir fry quickly for 1-2 minutes, until cooked through.

Pour in the broth and stir well, bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until the sauce starts to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
