Beef and Mixed Veggie Stir-fry
Ingredients
- 1 pound skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 cup red onion julienned
- 1 cup Broccoli chopped
- 1 cup string beans ends trimmed
- 1 cup Red bell pepper julienned
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds raw or toasted
- 2 tablespoons Green onions chopped
- 1/4 cup Water chestnuts sliced
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos (Stir-fry sauce)
- 2 tablespoons warm water (Stir-fry sauce)
- 2 cloves Garlic finely chopped (Stir-fry sauce)
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon ginger finely chopped (Stir-fry sauce)
Instructions
- Spread the skirt steak across a large cutting board and cut into sections that are approximately 4 inches long, cutting with the grain of the meat. Next, cut against the grain to slice each section into 1/4 inch strips.
- Over medium-high heat, let the skillet get hot and melt the coconut oil. Place the steak in the skillet and allow it to brown on both sides, approximately 1-2 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Place the red onion, broccoli, string beans, and bell peppers in the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes or until fork tender.
- While the vegetables cook, combine the sauce ingredients and mix well.
- Add the meat back to the pan, followed by the sauce, and heat through for about 2 minutes.
- Top the stir-fry with sesame seeds, green onions, and water chestnuts.
