Description

Tender, succulent beef marinated in a sweet and savory sauce with a smoky flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pre-sliced rib eye beef (or Top Sirloin/Tenderloin/Flank steak)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil (or any neutral oil)
  • 1 green onion (finely chopped for garnish)
  • 1.5 tsp sesame seeds (for optional garnish)
  • 1 1/4 cup Asian Pear (peeled, or sub with a Bosc pear or any pear/apple)
  • 1/2 cup onion (peeled)
  • 3 cloves garlic (peeled)
  • 1/4 cup regular soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon mirin
  • 2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Into a blender or food processor, add marinade ingredients and blend on high until smooth.
  2. In a large bowl, add thin slices of beef and pour the marinade over top. Gently mix to coat the meat and marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 1 hour in the fridge.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Remove marinated meat with tongs and shake off excess marinade before frying in small batches. Cook beef for about 3 minutes, stirring as needed.
  4. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Remove from heat and enjoy!

Notes

  • For best results, slice the beef thinly against the grain.
  • Marinate longer for more flavor.
