In a mixing bowl, blend the hoisin sauce, orange juice, and soy sauce using a whisk until well combined. Set aside. Immerse the sirloin steaks in the marinade, then cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

As the steaks marinate, fill a large pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil. Using a wire basket, add the broccoli and let it cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes at a gentle boil to blanch. Once done, transfer the broccoli to an ice water bath to halt the cooking process. Allow it to sit in the ice water for a few minutes until fully chilled.

Take the marinated steak out of the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 5 minutes before cooking. Remove the steaks from the marinade, making sure to keep the marinade for later use.

Preheat a medium-sized nonstick sauté pan over high heat. Once hot, spray with cooking oil, then place the steaks in the pan. Sear for 3 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish. After cooking, transfer the steaks to a cutting board.

Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and bring it to a boil. Allow it to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.

While the steaks are cooking, add sesame oil to a large nonstick skillet. Toss in the onions, garlic, and ginger, and sauté on high for 1 to 2 minutes. Introduce the broccoli noodles, season with salt, and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Add the blanched broccoli and stir until heated through.

Plate the zoodles onto two individual dishes. Slice the steak into thin strips on the cutting board. Arrange the beef over the noodles, drizzle with the sauce, and serve.
