Chinese Beef and Onion Stir Fry
Ingredients:
– 1 lb beef (flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye), thinly sliced
– 2 large onions, thinly sliced
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
– 1 teaspoon sugar
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thicker sauce)
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon grated ginger
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
1. In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Add the thinly sliced beef and toss to coat. Marinate for 10-15 minutes.
2. If using cornstarch, dissolve it in a small amount of water and set aside.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant.
4. Add the marinated beef to the pan and stir-fry until it starts to brown.
5. Add the sliced onions to the pan, continuing to stir-fry until the onions are soft and the beef is cooked through.
6. If a thicker sauce is desired, stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until the sauce thickens.
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
