QUICK AND EASY BASIL BEEF RECIPE
It is an absolutely perfect weeknight meal. You can make it in 15 minutes flat with only 10 ingredients. Incredible!
Servings : 4
INGREDIENTS
· 1 pound flank steak or sirloin steak, sliced thinly against the grain
· 2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
· 2 teaspoons cornstarch
· 5 cloves garlic, chopped
· 1 red bell pepper, julienned
· 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
· 2 tablespoons soy sauce
· 2 tablespoons fish sauce (optional)
· 2 teaspoons sugar
· 1 cup fresh Thai or Italian basil leaves, packed
· Steamed rice, for serving
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Toss the sliced beef with 2 teaspoons oil and 2 teaspoons cornstarch. Heat your wok over high heat, and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Sear the beef until just browned (but still a little rare), remove from the wok, and set aside.
2. Add the garlic, red bell pepper, and onions to the wok and stir-fry until tender. Toss the beef back in, along with the soy sauce, fish sauce (if using), and sugar. Stir-fry for another few seconds, and then fold in the basil until it’s just wilted. Serve with steamed rice.
