Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups light brown basmati rice (I used Della brand)
• 4 cups water
• 1 pound beef sirloin tips, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons fish sauce
• 2 teaspoons grated ginger
• 3-4 teaspoons chile paste
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 1/2 cup chopped roasted peanuts
• 1/4 cup minced cilantro

Directions

• In a sauce pot add rice and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for about 20 minutes or until all the water has been soaked up and the rice is fully cooked. While the rice is cooking start working on your meat. In a large bowl add sliced beef, low sodium soy sauce, dark brown sugar, fish sauce, grated ginger, chile paste and lime juice. Stir to combine and set aside. In a large skillet set over medium heat add olive oil. Once the oil is hot add in the onions and saute until soft and translucent. Turn the heat to medium high and add in the meat and any marinade from the bowl. Saute quickly until the meat is browned and the sauce is cooked down and thick. Stir in peanuts and cilantro and remove from heat. To serve, top cooked rice with meat and sprinkle with addition chopped peanuts and cilantro if desired.
