HOW TO MAKE SUPER EASY MONGOLIAN BEEF
Step 1: Add the sliced flank and cornstarch to a large Ziplock bag. Toss the beef until evenly coated in cornstarch.
Step 2: Add the vegetable oil in a heated large skillet over high heat. In a single layer, add the steak to the hot oil and cook for about a minute per side until the edges of the steak just begin to brown. Transfer the cooked steak to a plate when done.
Step 3: Place the soy sauce, brown sugar, water, ginger, and garlic in a small mixing bowl. Whisk well until mixed. Add this to the sauce and bring to a boil. Return the steak to the skillet and cook along with the sauce for a few minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Step 4: Before serving, toss the Mongolian Beef with chopped green onions and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
