Mongolian Beef
This 20-minute dish is so easy to make, with a wonderful savory-sweet glaze coating the ultra thin slices of steak.
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • (1 1/2 lbs.) Shaved Steak
  • ¼ cup approximately plus 2 teaspoons vegetable or canola oil, divided
  • 2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
  • 1 TBS freshly minced ginger
  • ½ cup less sodium soy sauce
  • ⅓ cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 TBS cornstarch
  • 6 scallions trimmed and thinly sliced (white and green parts)
  • Hot cooked brown or white rice to serve

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan heat 2 teaspoons of the oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and saute for 30 seconds, then add the soy sauce and brown sugar and bring to a simmer, whisking frequently over medium heat. Allow it to simmer and reduce a bit, until it gets a glazey consistency, about 4 minutes. Set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, toss the shaved steak in a mixing bowl with the cornstarch until evenly distributed.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet (the bigger the better) over medium high heat. Line a counter or a large plate with paper towels. Sauté the beef in batches, taking care not to crowd the pan, and flipping it as it browns, about 2 minutes in all. Use tongs to remove the beef when it is browned, transferring it to the paper towels. Repeat until all of the beef is browned, adding more oil as needed (make sure the oil has a chance to get hot before you add the next batch of beef so it browns up nicely).
  4. Pour off any additional oil and return the large skillet to medium high heat. Add all of the beef back to the pan, along with the sauce and scallions. Stir for about 3 minutes until the sauce is thickened and glazes all of the meat evenly. Serve over the rice.
