Description

Ingredients

• 1 pound flank steak, cut against the grain into bite sized pieces
• ¼ cup cornstarch
• 1 pound chow mein or lo mein noodles, (can use regular spaghetti too)
• 2 tablespoons oil, divided
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
• ½ cup mirin
• ½ cup light brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• a couple dashes of fish sauce
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• green onions for garnish, if desired
• sesame seeds for garnish, if desired

Directions

• In a large bowl toss the beef with the cornstarch and set aside.
• Cook noodles per package directions, set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet.
• When the oil is nice and hot add in the steak (I had to do two batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, if you do this you will need a bit more oil). Sauté until browned on both side, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan.
• Add in garlic and ginger and cook for 1-2 minutes.
• In a small bowl combine soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, sesame oil and fish sauce.
• Pour the soy sauce mixture into the pan and bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.
• In a small bowl mix together the cornstarch and water.
• Slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture whisking continuously. Continue to cook until your desired thickness.
• Add steak and noodles to the pan and toss to coat with the sauce.
• Serve immediately with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
