Ingredients
- 2 pounds flank steak , thinly sliced
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
- 1 medium white onion , quartered
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger grated
- 2 teaspoons fresh garlic minced
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 4 scallions cut into 2 inch pieces
Instructions
- Cut the beef thinly against the grain. Slices should be about 1/4 inch thick. Trim any large pieces of fat. Dab the beef dry with paper towels and set aside.
- In a large bowl or shallow pie plate, whisk together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder and fine sea salt.
- Dredge the beef slices in flour mixture, shaking off excess flour. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches so the meat doesn't touch, cook for 4-5 minutes or until the strips are fully cooked and browned on all sides. Remove to a plate and continue with the remaining beef.
- In the same skillet, add the onion, garlic and ginger. If the skillet is dry, add a small amount of additional oil (1-2 teaspoons). Saute for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the water, soy sauce and brown sugar, stirring until combined and sugar has dissolved. Bring to a low simmer.
- Add the cooked beef back to the sauce, tossing to coat and reducing to low heat. Sauce will thicken in 2-4 minutes. Stir in the chopped scallions.
- Serve over rice or a bed of lettuce.
