- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1 lb. boneless beef sirloin steak, cut into 1/8-inch thin strips
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 8 oz. mushrooms, sliced

DIRECTIONS
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and chicken broth.

- Remove and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Drain and discard marinade from beef.
- In the same skillet, stir-fry the beef in the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil for 2 minutes.
