Blackberry Ginger Mongolian Beef
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs sirloin or flank steak (sliced against the grain)
- 1.5 tbs O' So Good Blackberry Ginger balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 3/4 tbsp grated ginger
- 2-4 tbsp O' So Good Lemon Olive Oil
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 2-3 tbsp sliced scallions/green onions for garnish
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp O' So Good Blackberry Ginger balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- In a medium bowl combine the ingredients for the marinade and add the sliced steak. Allow to marinade in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- When ready to cook, heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. The goal is to sear the meat but not burn it so if it gets too hot turn the heat down. Remove any excess liquid from the meat and then add half the beef slices to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for about three minutes on one side and then flip them over for an additional two minutes until fully cooked. Remove and place onto a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining beef slices.
- After cooking the beef it’s time to make the sauce! In the same skillet add the remaining 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed into 2 tablespoons of water, and the 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar. Stir continuously until it begins to boil and then turn the heat down to simmer until thickened into a sauce. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and give it a toss in the sauce. Layer over some cooked rice and enjoy!
