This recipe is a great way to use up leftover steak. I had a leftover flank steak and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

I made this recipe for my vegetarian friends and they loved it. I used tofu instead of beef and it was delicious. The coleslaw was also a big hit.

I substituted chicken for the beef in this recipe and it turned out great. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the coleslaw was a great complement.
