Low Sodium Beef Stirfry

While looking for another interesting meal, and to use up stuff in our cupboard/freezer (due to a big snow storm), I combined a few recipes together to get this stirfry.  The sauce is slightly gravy-ish, but a little extra soy sauce (low sodium of course) added at the table kicks the flavor up a bit more.

INGREDIENTS
Sauce:
2Tbl cornstarch
1 Tbl olive oil
2 teas brown sugar
6 tbl low sodium soy sauce
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup white wine
2 teas minced garlic
1/4 teas black pepper
1 teas ginger

Stirfry:
2Tbl olive oil
1 lb beef, cut into bite sized pieces
1/2 vidalia onion, sliced
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
1/2 red pepper, chopped
2 cups broccoli

Rice cooked according to package directions

DIRECTIONS
1) place beef, and all of the sauce ingrediants (except for cornstarch) into a 1 gallon ziploc bag, marinate for 10 to 20 minutes (can be done while you chop and prepare the vegetables)
2) heat oil in large skillet or chef's pan (or wok if you have one), add beef (reserving the marinade), carrots, onions, and pepper and cook until vegetables are cooked halfway
3) add brocoli and cook through
4) mix cornstarch into reserved marinade, and add to skillet, heat until sauce is at desired consistency
5) serve over rice
