Instructions
- Combine all marinade ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until combined. Pour into a zip-lock back with beef strips, seal and chill 1 hour or overnight. Drain marinade from zip-lock and set beef aside.
- To make the sauce, in a medium sauce pan whisk together toasted sesame oil, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Stir and heat over medium high heat until brown sugar has dissolved.
- While sauce is cooking, whisk together corn starch and water in a small bowl until corn starch is dissolved.
- Bring sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and stir in corn starch-water mixture. Allow sauce to thicken slightly, then remove from heat.
- In a large pan or skillet, cook beef strips over medium high heat until cooked through (5-8 mins) turning strips over throughout to ensure even cooking, reduce heat to medium.
- Add 1/2-1 cup of sauce (depending on how "saucy" you want your beef). Stir and cook 1-2 minutes longer.
- Serve over rice with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe makes a large batch of the sauce, more than you will need for your beef! You may half the recipe if you'd like, or we like to use the extra over rice!
