Instructions

If you are making rice or quinoa, start that first.
In a large skillet, over medium high heat, add your olive oil and let it heat up until it shimmers. While you wait, you can cut up your skirt steak into bite size pieces and thinly slice the white end of your green onions.
Add your skirt steak and let it start to quickly brown, toss it a few times so the meat browns on all sides.
As the skirt steak browns, mix together the sauce - whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar and red pepper flakes.
Cut up the broccoli.
Once browned, turn the heat down on your skirt steak, pour in the sauce mixture and add in the broccoli. Toss to incorporate.
Add a lid and let is cook over medium heat until the broccoli steams to your preferred crunchiness, about 5-7 minutes) and the sauce thickens.
