Time 40m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons fish sauce (or soy sauce)
1 heaping tablespoon finely sliced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 teaspoons honey
Juice of 1/2 lime
1 bunch scallions, sliced
1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 tablespoon finely sliced fresh ginger
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cups thinly sliced vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, snow peas, bok choy, etc.)
2 to 3 tablespoons soy sauce
Steamed rice, for serving

Steps:

  • For the marinated steak: Combine the fish sauce, ginger, garlic, honey, lime juice and 1 tablespoon of the sliced scallions in a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the steak and toss well to coat.
  • For the stir-fry: Mix the remaining sliced scallions with the garlic and ginger in a small bowl and set aside.

FLANK STEAK STIR-FRY WITH ASPARAGUS AND RED PEPPER



FLANK STEAK STIR-FRY WITH ASPARAGUS AND RED PEPPER image

Categories     Beef     Stir-Fry     Low Carb

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 lb asparagus, trimmed, cut on the diagonal into 1 1/2 inch lengths (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 lb of flank steak, sliced in half lengthwise (along the grain) and then cut into thin strips, 2 inches long and 1/4 inch wide (put the steak in the freezer for 15 minutes before slicing to make it easier to slice)
1 red bell pepper, seeded, de-ribbed, and cut into thin strips 2 inches long and 1/4 inch wide
2 teaspoons of cornstarch dissolved into 3 Tablespoons of water
All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce
3 Tbsp soy sauce (use gluten-free soy sauce for gluten-free version)
1 tsp finely chopped, peeled, fresh ginger
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 green onion, including green tops, chopped
1/2 tsp chili oil

Steps:

  • Method 1 While you are chopping the ingredients in preparation, bring a small saucepan of water to boil. Parboil the asparagus pieces for 2 minutes, drain, rinse in cold water, drain, and set aside. If you are planning to serve this dish with rice, in a separate pan, prepare 2 cups of white rice, following the instructions on the rice package. 2 Prepare the All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce by combining the ingredients in a small dish, and set aside. 3 Stir-fry the asparagus in a wok (or a thick-bottomed pan with at least 2" sides that can take high heat) in 1 Tbsp of oil, on high heat, for about 2 minutes until lightly browned. Remove asparagus from pan and set aside. 4 Add another 1 Tbsp of oil to the pan and stir fry the beef strips, in 2 batches, for 2-3 minutes until browned but still pink inside. Return the first batch of beef to the pan and add the bell pepper. Stir and toss over high heat until just beginning to wilt, 1-2 minutes. 5 Quickly stir the cornstarch liquid and add it to the pan along with the stir fry sauce. Cook until sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Return the asparagus to the pan, toss to evenly coat and serve with steamed white rice (unless you are going low-carb, in which case, leave out the rice). Serves 4.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 lb flank steak
2 -3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 sweet onion
1/2 lb asparagus
1 red bell pepper
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Trim the excess fat and cut the flank steak in small, bite-size pieces. Combine the ingredients for the marinade and let the beef marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the onions in thin slices. The bell peppers should be seeded and cut in 1-inch slices. Cut the tougher ends of the asparagus and slice them on the diagonal into 2-inch long pieces.
  • Bring a medium pan of water to a boil, reduce to a simmer and throw the asparagus in for about 2 or 3 minutes. Drain them, run them under cold water and dry them.
  • In a wok or sauté pan over a high flame, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the marinated beef strips, making sure it makes a nice sizzling sound. Once the meat is nicely browned on the outside, but still tender in the middle, about 2-3 minutes depending on the size, take it out and set it aside on a plate. You may need to sear the beef in two batches if your wok is not big enough.
  • Add 1 more tablespoon of the oil, and briefly stir-fry the asparagus for 3-4 minutes at medium-high eat. Set the asparagus aside and keep warm.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil, if necessary, and add the onions. Toss and turn until they have a nice golden brown color, 7 to 10 minutes. Add the peppers and stir until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add sugar and vinegar, and cook for a few more minutes until the onions begin to caramelize.
  • Add the stock and bring to a simmer cooking for another 2 minutes to reduce the liquid. Mix the cornstarch with the 3 tablespoons of water and add slowly add it to the mixture until the sauce is a thick as you desire.
  • Return the beef and the asparagus to the pan and stir for another minute or so to amalgamate the flavors. Serve immediately with some white or brown rice.

STEAK AND ASPARAGUS STIR-FRY



Steak and Asparagus Stir-Fry image

Red Thai chiles turn up the volume on this one-pot weeknight wonder that's faster (and tastier!) than takeout.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons safflower oil, divided
9 ounces skirt steak, cut with the grain into 4-inch-long pieces, then against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices, or New York strip steak, cut against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices
Coarse salt
A 1 1/2-inch piece of peeled fresh ginger, minced (about 3 tablespoons)
1 1/2 red Thai chiles or 1/2 jalapeno, minced, seeds and ribs included
1 1/2 bunches scallions, thinly sliced on the bias, white and green parts separated
1 1/2 bunches asparagus (about 1 1/2 pounds), trimmed and sliced on the bias into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
Cooked rice, for serving
Lime wedges and dry-roasted peanuts, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, swirl to coat, and add steak. Season with salt and sear, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add remaining tablespoon oil to wok and swirl to coat. Add ginger, chiles, and scallion whites and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add asparagus and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Return steak to wok, along with scallion greens. Toss to combine and heat through. Remove from heat and season with salt. Serve over rice with lime wedges for squeezing and peanuts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right flank steak: Look for a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling.
  • Slice the steak against the grain: This will help to tenderize the meat and make it easier to chew.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak for at least 30 minutes will help to flavor it and make it more tender.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the meat and lock in the juices.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Flank steak is a thin cut of meat, so it is important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and chewy.
  • Serve the steak immediately: Flank steak is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Flank steak stir-fry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The steak is tender and flavorful, and the vegetables are crisp and colorful. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
