Ingredients

• 1 lb Flank steak
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch
• 3 tbsp Soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Fresh ginger
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 4 cups Bok choy
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 3 Green onions
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the flank steak into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, against the grain. Place the steak strips in a bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until evenly coated.

Step 2

Finely grate the ginger and mince the garlic cloves. Set them aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, oyster sauce, and sesame oil to create the sauce. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beef strips in a single layer, working in batches if necessary. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the ginger and garlic, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the bok choy to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the leaves are wilted but the stalks remain slightly crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked beef to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the beef and bok choy.

Step 8

Slice the green onions thinly and sprinkle them over the top of the dish. If desired, garnish with sesame seeds for extra flavor.

Step 9

Serve the ginger beef with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
