  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2-4 people 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 NY strip steaks (1.5" thick)

3-inch ginger

6 garlic cloves

3 green onions

3 tbsp butter

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp of sweetener (white sugar)

2 tsp baking soda

1 red chili (optional)

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp of pepper

avocado oil for searing (about 1/4 cup)

Instructions

  1. Make sure your steak is at room temperature. Cut your steaks into 2" cubes.
  2. Put your steak into a large bowl.
  3. Add the salt, pepper, soy sauce, and baking soda to tenderize the beef.
  4. Marinate for 5 minutes. In the meantime, slice your ginger, green onions, and chili. Smash your garlic. Set it aside. Prep everything at once as it comes together really quickly.
  5. In a cast iron skillet, put enough avocado oil to cover the pan. Once the oil is preheated, hot sear the steak bites for 2-3 minutes on each side. Make sure the pan is hot. You do want your beef to have a nice crust on the outside and not overcooked.
  6. On high heat, sear the beef in batches. A single layer is best. Do not overcrowd.
  7. Once all the beef is seared throughout, discard the oil.
  8. On medium heat, add the butter, ginger, garlic, and green onions and saute until fragrant. Add the oyster sauce and sugar.
  9. Add back the steak bites and saute for 3-4 minutes on medium-high heat. Mixing well to make sure everything is covered in the sauce.
  10. For tender steak bites, rest it for 3-5 minutes.

Notes

  • Discard the avocado oil when you are finished searing the steak bites.
  • Do not crowd the beef, sear in batches.
