  • ½ cup oyster sauce
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • ¼ cup minced garlic
  • ¼ cup dark soy sauce

  6. Cook and stir onion in the same skillet until softened, 1 to 2 minutes; add broccoli and sauced noodles.
  7. Return beef to skillet and toss everything together until heated through top with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot.
