Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef flank steak
• 0.5 cup Cornstarch
• 0.75 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup Gluten-free soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 stalks Scallions
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef flank steak into thin strips about 1/4 inch wide.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, add the beef strips and cornstarch. Toss to coat thoroughly, ensuring each piece is well-covered.

Step 3

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the beef strips in batches; avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry until crispy and browned, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 5

Pour out excess oil from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add gluten-free soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir for a couple of minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 7

Return the crispy beef to the skillet, toss to coat with the sauce evenly.

Step 8

Drizzle sesame oil over the beef, stirring to combine.

Step 9

Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately over steamed rice or gluten-free noodles.
