Beef Stir Fry with White Rice
I prepared the rice first and while it was boiling, I prepared the beef stir fry.
Recipes:
White Rice: Makes 3 cups of rice
2 cups rice (I used a long grain white rice)
4 cups water (you can use chicken broth f you like)
2 tbsp butter
salt to taste
chopped green onion
Directions: Add the rice, butter, salt and water to a large saucepot and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pot with a tight lid.
Simmer around 18 minutes until the water has evaporated. Check it after 10 minutes. You don't want the rice to burn. Once all the water is evaporated, remove the pot from heat and sir in green onions.
Beef Stir Fry Recipe: Serves 3
Ingredients
Beef Flank Steak (1.5 IBS) I got a 3.5 pound steak and divided it in half for 2 meals. Cut off fat. Then, cut against the grain of the beef into strips and then chop strips into chunks. You can freeze half of the chunks for another day.
fresh broccoli florets-about 4 cups
fresh green beans- cut in half -about 2 cups
olive oil for frying- 4 TBSP
Sauce Ingredients:
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp rice vinegar
2 TBSP sesame oil
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ginger- you should use fresh grated ginger but I had to use powdered ginger.
4 cloves garlic- minced
3 TBSP cornstarch
Directions:
In a large frying pan add 2 TBSP olive oil and heat on stove at medium high heat.
Add broccoli and green beans to hot frying pan and sauté for around 10 minutes. The vegetables should be bright green and tender crisp.
While the vegetables are cooking, mix all the sauce ingredients together in a separate bowl.
After the vegetables are cooked, remove them from the frying pan.
Add another 2 TBSP of olive oil to frying pan and add the beef cubes. Sauté for a few minutes.
Add the sauce to the beef in the hot frying pan. Stir and cook beef and sauce for a few more minutes until it is about medium done. I cooked my beef around 8 minutes.
Add the broccoli and green beans back to the frying pan and cook a few more minutes until the vegetables are incorporated into the sauce.
Serve on top of rice and enjoy!!!
