Prep 20 min · Cook 5 min

In a small saucepan, combine the rice, a pinch of the salt, and 1/2 cup of the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand covered for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, cornstarch, rice vinegar, and 1/4 cup of the water until smooth.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tbsp of water and the broccoli, then cover immediately. Steam until bright green and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Uncover and let any remaining moisture evaporate, then remove broccoli from the pan and wipe it dry.
Season the beef slices with the remaining salt. Add the avocado oil to the same skillet over high heat. Add the beef in a single layer and sear without moving for 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 minute more. Done when browned and cooked through, 145°F.
Reduce heat to medium. Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Whisk the sauce once more and pour it in. Add the broccoli back to the pan and simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce is glossy and thick enough to coat a spoon, about 1 minute. Fluff the rice with a fork and plate it, then top with the beef and broccoli.
