Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin or flank steak
- 2 medium Yellow onion
- 60 ml Coconut aminos
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon Arrowroot powder
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the beef: Slice the beef sirloin or flank steak thinly against the grain into strips about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle the strips with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Step 2
Slice the onions: Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into half-moon shapes. Set aside.
Step 3
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the coconut aminos, finely minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, and arrowroot powder. Stir until the arrowroot powder is fully dissolved to create a smooth sauce.
Step 4
Heat the oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 5
Cook the beef: Add the beef strips to the hot skillet in a single layer. Sear for 1-2 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until just browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
Step 6
Cook the onions: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Add a small splash of water if the onions begin to stick to the pan.
Step 7
Combine and cook: Return the beef to the skillet with the onions. Pour in the sauce and stir well to coat the beef and onions evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 8
Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish the stir-fry with sliced green onions if desired. Serve immediately as a standalone dish or alongside cauliflower rice for a complete Paleo meal.
