Instructions

MAKE THE SAUCE:

  • In a liquid measuring cup, measure and add honey, sriracha, rice vinegar, chicken broth, (2 teaspoons) cornstarch and the ground white pepper. Whisk well to combine.

MAKE THE STIR-FRY:

  • Place the steak in the freezer for 10 minutes. Freezing the steak makes it easier to slice. Then remove and with a sharp knife, thinly slice. Season with a few pinches of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss to coat in the seasonings.
  • Add half of the seasoned beef to a gallon size re-sealable bag with half of the cornstarch. Seal and shake well to coat. You may need to separate a few pieces and shake or toss in the cornstarch to coat.
  • Using tongs remove each slice, shaking of any excess cornstarch and place on a wire rack set into a large metal baking pan. Repeat with the remaining steak and cornstarch.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of avocado oil (or oil safe for high heat cooking) and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the beef for 2 to 3 minutes a side. As the pan and oil get hotter, you may only need to sear for 1 to 2 minutes. Adding more oil as needed.
    Transfer back to the wire rack and repeat with the remaining slices.
  • Once the beef is cooked, wipe out the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Next, add in the toasted sesame oil, snow peas and green onions. Toss and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the snow peas are bright green and glossy. Then add in the garlic and toss and cook 1 minute.
  • Add the crispy beef back into the pan, pour in the sauce and increase the heat to high. Continue to stir as the sauce comes to a bubble until it has thickened. This shouldn’t take but a few minutes.
  • Serve over cooked rice of choice (linked in blog post) and garnish with a sprinkle of sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
