Ready in only 20 minutes, you cannot beat this dish for an easy and flavorful weeknight go-to recipe. Beef and asparagus are a great combo but other vegetables you have on-hand such as broccoli florets or bell pepper strips, can be used as well. The broth, soy sauce and cornstarch mixture make a rich and delicious sauce begging for some rice to sop up the flavor. A trick to getting the thinnest cut on your beef, place the meat in the freezer for 15 minutes before you slice it. The slightly frozen meat is much less giving to the knife and therefore yields great thin slices. If you have boneless, skinless chicken breast you can use that in place of the beef. Purchase pre-toasted sesame seeds or toast your seeds before cooking the dish for best results.
