I’ve been remaking this recipe for over 10 years. It’s so easy. Juicy beef, crisp asparagus and warming chilies are tossed in a rich sauce that is sweet and spicy. Pair this ginger beef stir fry with a bowl of rice to soak up the flavors of the sauce.

ingredients

• 1/4 cup (packed) The Ginger People® Grated Ginger
• 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
• 1 pound lean top sirloin steak, sliced across grain 1/4″ thick
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic, about 5 cloves
• 3-4 ounces snap peas or asparagus cut in bite-size pieces, optional
• 1/4 cup The Ginger People® Ginger Lime Marinade
• 1 teaspoon The Ginger People® Ginger Syrup
• 2 fresh red chilies or 1 jalapeno, seeded and thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup cilantro leaves (coriander)
• Hot cooked rice

 

directions

1. Soak Grated Ginger in a small bowl of warm water for 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Return to the bowl and toss with flour.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil on high in a large nonstick wok or skillet. Add half the meat in a single layer (don’t overcrowd) and cook over high heat until seared on both sides, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Repeat with second half of meat.
3. Return the skillet to high heat. Add additional tablespoon oil and garlic; stir until fragrant, about 15 seconds, watching carefully so as not to burn. Return all the meat to pan with vegetables (if using).
4. Add Ginger Marinade, Ginger Syrup, Grated Ginger and chilies. Stir-fry 1-2 minutes. Add a tablespoon or two of water to loosen sauce if desired.
5. Stir in cilantro. Serve over rice.
