Beef Stir Fry - Oriental

By cooksalot

Ingredients

• For the Sauce:
• 3 Tbsp soy sauce (I normally use Kikkoman.)
• 3 Tbsp honey
• 1 1/2 Tbsp oyster sauce
• 2 Tbsp Chinese cooking wine (or substitute with Swanson beef stock)
• 2 Tbsp water
• 1 tsp sriracha sauce
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• For the Stir Fry:
• 1 1/2 Tbsp peanut oil (or vegetable oil)
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 small onion, sliced in half
• 1 lb flank steak, sliced thinly, across the grain

Preparation

Step 1

Combine all sauce ingredients, whisk and set aside.



Add oil to a large heavy skillet and heat over HIGH heat until oil is very hot and smoking slightly. Add onion and garlic to the skillet and saute for 1 minute, careful not to let the garlic burn.

Next, add the sliced flank steak and stir fry for about 1 minute. Slide beef, onion and garlic onto a plate and set aside.

Reduce the heat and add the whisked sauce to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, until sauce becomes thicker and syrupy.

Add the beef, onion, and garlic back to the skillet. Heat until warmed through and coated in the sauce. Don’t overcook the beef, you don’t want it to become chewy.

Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds and chopped chives/scallions if desired.
