INSTRUCTIONS
1. Slice flank steak against the grain, on an angle into ¼-inch thin slices. Transfer to a medium bowl. Tip: to easily slice beef
thinly, freeze the exposed beef for 40 minutes until the exterior is hard to touch and slice with a sharp knife.
2. Marinate beef with Marinade ingredients as listed above. Marinate at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, combine Sauce ingredients as listed above. Set aside.
4. In a large skillet on low heat, heat vegetable oil. Stir fry white onions and scallion whites for 30 seconds. Remove and set
aside.
5. Increase to medium high heat, add marinated beef in a single layer and spread apart. Brown beef on each side for 2-3
minutes per side.
6. Reduce to medium heat, pour prepared sauce in a circular motion, and stir fry for another 30-60 seconds until sauce
thickens.
7. Toss back in garlic, scallion greens, and cooked onions from before. Stir fry for another 30-60 seconds. Remove off heat
and enjoy with a bowl of plain rice and your favourite vegetables!
