Ingredients
- 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 ½ pounds petite boneless sirloin steak or a similar cut of beef, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons dry sherry or rice wine
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar packed
- 2 bunches green onions
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk soy sauce and cornstarch together.
- Add sliced beef to soy sauce mixture, and toss to coat.
- Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk hoisin sauce, sherry, and sugar together in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
- Chop green onions into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add garlic, ginger, and beef with its sauce. Quickly toss to combine.
- Let the beef cook for 30 seconds without stirring.
- Stir in green onions, and cook, stirring regularly, until they're just starting to wilt.
- Pour the hoisin sauce mixture in along with the sesame oil, and cook until just thickened.
- I serve this over rice topped with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Notes
- Soy sauce: I prefer to use lite or reduced-sodium soy sauce in this recipe. It keeps the sauce from getting overly salty.
- Steak: Flank steak is another great choice for this recipe.
- This recipe moves pretty quickly. It's a good idea to gather all of the ingredients and have them ready before beginning.
