Preparation
Step 1
In a large re-sealable plastic bag, combine 2 Tbsp soy sauce, sherry, and ginger; Add the beef. Seal the bag and turn to coat evenly; Refrigerate for 30 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, beef broth, Hoisin sauce, sugar, and remaining soy sauce until the mixture is smooth; Set aside. In a large skillet or wok, stir-fry the beef in 1 Tbsp of canola oil until the beef is no longer pink; Remove the beef and set aside. Stir-fry the asparagus in the remaining canola oil until it is crisp-tender; Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Stir the cornstarch mixture and add it to the pan; Bring to a boil, cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Return the beef to the pan and heat through. Serve with rice or noodles.
