Another recipe from the recipe exchange. So easy and faster to make than I thought.
Saute over medium-high heat:
1 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 lb beef steak or roast, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tsp garlic minced ( or 3/4 tsp. garlic powder)
1-2 green onions, sliced
In a separate bowl, combine the following:
2 tsp sugar
1 Cup chicken broth
1/4 Cup oyster sauce
Once the meat is cooked add 1-2 heads of broccoli, chopped (or 1/2 bag of frozen)
Add the sauce to meat. Thicken with a mixture of 1-2 TB cornstarch and 1/2 Cup cold water.
Makes 2-4 servings. Serve with rice.
Notes:
You can also try some thinly sliced carrots, add with broccoli.
Frozen broccoli cooks a little faster, so be careful that it doesn't get mushy.
If you don't want to use beef, you can substitute with chicken, pork, or shrimp!
Oyster sauce is found in the Asian section at most grocery stores. It comes in a glass bottle. Any brand is good.

Chicken Fajitas
I got this recipe from a relief society recipe exchange. I tried it and we fell in love with it. I absolutely love the marinade.
Marinade:
1/4 C soy sauce
1/4 C olive oil
1 Tablespoon OJ concentrate
3 TB lemon juice
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp chili powder
Other:
2 chicken breasts
1/2 medium onion
1/2 bell pepper
Toppings (sour cream, cheese, salsa...)
Directions: marinade chicken 12-24 hours. Grill Chicken, slice into strips, and set aside. In medium skillet, sautee onions and peppers in olive oil until tender. Fill tortilla with chicken, onions and peppers. Top with choice of toppings!
Note to self: I throw in the chicken with the onion and pepper mixture before putting in tortilla, just to make things easier.
