Stir Fry Beef and Vegetables

A good stir fry is one of the fastest, most satisfying dinners you can make. Thin slices of beef sear quickly in a hot pan, crisp vegetables keep their snap, and a simple sauce ties everything together. It is faster than ordering takeout, and you know exactly what goes into it.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, sliced thin against the grain
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large carrot, sliced thin on the diagonal
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger
  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos or soy sauce (use less if adding Stir Fry Seasoning, which already contains tamari) or coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp Duck River honey
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp stir fry seasoning
  • Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish

*Bolded ingredients are products we typically carry at Tare Bulk Foods.

Directions

  1. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, and stir fry seasoning in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the beef in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes per side until seared. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining oil. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, and carrot. Stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Add the garlic and ginger. Cook for 30 seconds.
  5. Return the beef to the pan and pour in the sauce. Toss everything together for 1 minute until coated and heated through.
  6. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

  • Slice the beef as thin as possible for the best texture. Partially freezing it for 20 minutes makes slicing easier.
  • Serve over white Thai jasmine rice or brown basmati rice.
  • Swap the beef for chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a different version.
