Ingredients

For the stir fry

  • 1 1/4 lbs thinly sliced steak such as flank steak or sirloin
  • 3 cups of mixed vegetables (I used broccoli florets and sliced bell peppers)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Optional garnishes: sliced green onions and sesame seeds

For the sauce

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons minced ginger
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • For the sauce: Place the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil in a small pot over medium high heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn up heat to high and bring to a boil.
  • Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and boil for 1-2 minutes or until sauce has thickened. Set sauce aside.
  • For the stir fry: Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until vegetables have started to brown and soften.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook, until water has evaporated. When your vegetables are crisp tender remove them from the pan and set aside.
  • Wipe out the pan. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in the pan over high heat.
  • Place half of the steak in the pan and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until just cooked through.
  •  Set the first batch of steak aside and repeat the process with the rest of the beef.
  • Add all of the meat and vegetables back to the pan. Pour the sauce over the top and cook for 2-3 minutes over medium high heat until warmed through.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired.
