Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and green onions to create the marinade.
  2. Place the sliced beef in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure all pieces are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best flavor).
  3. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Remove excess marinade from the beef and cook in batches for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.
  4. Serve with steamed rice and lettuce leaves. Drizzle any extra marinade over the top before serving.
