    Mix broth, garlic, gingerroot, soy sauce, brown sugar and five-spice powder in medium glass or plastic bowl. Mix cornstarch and cold water; stir into broth mixture. Stir in beef until evenly coated. Let stand 10 minutes. Drain beef; reserve marinade.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The Betty Crocker Kitchens recommends marinating only in glass or plastic. Metal bowls may react with acidic foods, which can cause an off-flavor and minerals to transfer from the bowl to the food.
  • tip 2
    If you use a lot of garlic, consider purchasing finely chopped garlic in jars. This is usually found in the produce section and needs refrigeration.
