2 thinly sliced New York Strip Steaks about 1-1/2 pounds
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
3 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup light brown sugar
2 green onions sliced into 1 inch pieces
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Season sliced steak with salt and pepper. Toss steak in cornstarch until fully and evenly coated. Set aside.
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon oil. Add garlic and ginger and sauté for 1 minute. Add soy sauce, water and sugar and bring to a boil until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.
Pour sauce into a liquid measuring cup and set aside.
Place skillet back over heat and add remaining oil. Add steak and sear until evenly browned on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Pour sauce back into skillet and stir together with beef. Simmer and allow sauce to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes.
Toss in green onion and continue to cook for 1 more minute until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
Pour Mongolian beef over steamed rice and serve.
