Mongolian Beef
Ingredients
1 lb skirt steak, thinly sliced
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp avocado oil
4 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp ginger, grated
1/3 cup coconut aminos
2 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
1 tbsp sesame seeds, for garnish
1 tbsp green onions, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Add 1 lb thinly sliced skirt steak to a bowl and coat with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp onion powder.
Toss in 2 tbsp cornstarch and ensure each piece is evenly coated.
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tbsp avocado oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the beef in an even layer. If necessary, cook in batches. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
While the beef cooks, combine 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp grated ginger, ⅓ cup coconut aminos, and 2 tbsp maple syrup in a small bowl.
Once the beef is cooked to your liking, turn off the heat and pour the sauce over it. Toss to coat—the sauce will thicken quickly.
Transfer to a container for meal prep or enjoy immediately.
