Instructions
- Thinly slice flank steak against the grain on an angle into ¼-inch thick pieces. Transfer beef into a large bowl. Tip: to easily slice steak thinly, freeze thawed flank steak for 45-60 mins. Once it’s hardened on the surface, it'll be much easier to slice into thin pieces with a sharp knife.
- Marinate beef with Marinade ingredients as listed above for 20 minutes.
- In a small bowl combine Stir Fry Sauce ingredients. Set aside.
- In a wok or large frying pan on medium heat, heat vegetable oil or any neutral oil. Fry marinated beef in hot oil in a single layer until 95% cooked. Remove and set aside.
- Increase to medium-high heat, add ginger, garlic, red bell pepper, snow peas into pan. Then add cold water. Cook until veggies are crisp but tender, about 1 minute.
- Pour in stir fry sauce. Mix with veggies. Simmer sauce to thicken.
- Once sauce has thickened, add back in cooked beef. Toss everything together. Serve and enjoy!
