Description

A quick and flavorful Asian-style dish featuring tender marinated beef, fresh vegetables, and a savory oyster sauce, perfect for serving over rice or noodles.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Marinated Beef

  • 1 pound beef flank steak*
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 beaten egg white
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons diced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger

Vegetables

  • 1 small white onion, chopped
  • 2 bunches of Bok choy

Oyster Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • Optional: sesame seeds
  • Optional: green onions

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Beef: Add thinly sliced beef to a resealable bag with the marinade ingredients. Mix everything so the beef is well coated. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a generous drizzle of vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, add the beef and cook for one minute on each side. Remove from the pan to a clean plate lined with paper towels. It’s best to cook in batches to avoid overcooking the meat.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: Add another drizzle of vegetable oil to the pan and cook the onions for 1-2 minutes. Add the Bok choy and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Combine and Serve: Return the beef to the pan with the vegetables and toss with oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sugar. Cook for a minute, stirring constantly, until the sauce slightly thickens. Serve over rice or stir-fry noodles, optionally garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

  • *Ribeye or sirloin are also good options for this recipe.
  • The dish is best served immediately for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Adjust the oyster sauce or soy sauce according to your taste preference.
