• 1 tablespoon freshly minced ginger

• 2 teaspoons cornstarch

• 1 teaspoon honey

Stir fry:

• 1 1/2-2 pounds flank steak thinly sliced, against the grain

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch

• 3 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil divided

• 2 tablespoons sesame oil

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1️⃣ In a small mixing bowl whisk together water, chicken broth, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, honey, and cornstarch.

2️⃣ Slice beef thin. Toss with cornstarch.

3️⃣ Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Pour in sesame oil and 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and add in beef. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

4️⃣ Toss and cook beef until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Work in batches so the pan is not crowded. Set the cooked beef aside as it finishes.

5️⃣ Add in 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, garlic, onion, bell peppers, broccoli florets, snow peas, and carrot sticks. Let the veggies sauté for another 5 minutes.

6️⃣ Once veggies have started to soften, add beef back to the pan with sauce mixture and continue to cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir occasionally. Sauce will thicken.

7️⃣ Serve over rice or noodles and garnish with sliced green onions.
