Ingredients
- 1 pound beef flank steak
- 1 cup arrowroot powder
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 for garnish green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Slice the flank steak very thinly against the grain. This helps to make the beef tender and easy to chew.
Step 2
Place the sliced beef into a large bowl and add the arrowroot powder. Toss until each piece is well-coated.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Allow it to melt and get very hot.
Step 4
In batches, carefully add the coated beef slices to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until beef is crispy and golden brown. Remove the beef and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 5
Once all the beef is cooked, remove any excess oil from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon behind.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to medium and add the coconut aminos, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir well to combine, cooking the sauce until it becomes fragrant and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Step 7
Return the crispy beef to the skillet and toss it in the sauce until thoroughly coated.
Step 8
Serve the crispy beef hot, garnished with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
