Instructions
Marinate the beef
- In a medium bowl, mix oyster sauce, soy sauces, sugar, and garlic powder. Coat the beef with baking soda and ½ tbsp of the sauce. Let it sit for 15 minutes while prepping the rest. Reserve the remaining marinade.
Prep the Noodles
- Fresh noodles: Cut into 1-inch wide strips. Blanch for 30 seconds if stiff, then drain and shock in ice water.Dried noodles: Cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water
Sear the Beef
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large nonstick pan or wok over medium-high. Sear the beef for 1–2 minutes per side, then transfer to a plate.
Stir Fry Veggies
- Add the remaining oil. Cook the onion and Chinese broccoli stems for 2 minutes. Add the leaves and cook 4–5 minutes more, until softened.
Add Noodles + Sauce
- Gently separate noodles and toss with the remaining marinade. Add a splash of water or oil if they start to dry out.
- Finish. Return the beef to the pan. Toss in bean sprouts and mix everything together until heated through.
- Garnish & Serve. Top with scallions and a drizzle of sriracha if you like heat. Serve immediately!
Notes
- If your beef is tough, make sure you’re slicing against the grain and don’t skip the baking soda—it tenderizes like a dream.
- Don’t overcook the noodles. Add them last and toss gently so they don’t break apart.
