Ingredients

How to make it

  • Partially freeze beef, then slice across the grain into 3 1/2 slices. Set aside.
  • Combine next 9 ingredients in mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Add beef, turning to coat well. Cover, and refrigerate, at least 20 minutes.
  • (P.S. - The marinating step is crucial. It gives the meat time to absorb all those wonderful flavors. After all, the FLAVOR is what makes this dish so amazing!)
  • Heat wok over med. high heat. Pour 2 TBSP. oil around top of wok. Heat for 1 minute. Add green onions, ( or other veg.). Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook 6 minutes, or until tender. Remove green onion
  • Add remaining 1/4 c. oil. Heat on med. high 1 minute. Add beef mixture and stir-fry 5 minutes, or until done.
  • Return onions to beef mixture. Stir-fry 30 seconds, or until heated through. Serve over noodles or rice. Garnish with fresh red chile slices, if desired.
  • I found this recipe in a book in a library in Waco, TX 20 years ago and have been making it ever since. It never fails to impress anyone I serve it to.

    I am sorry. I am trying to think of something positive to say about this recipe and I cant. First off, the amount of cornstarch added is way too much. Half it at least. Think to yourself as you make this "could i just phone it in from my favorite Chinese place for the same cost, half the effort, and twice the quality?". That being said, my wife like it.
