Beef & Green Bean Stir Fry

from Whole Foods

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 1 tablespoon mild honey
  • 2 large cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound lean steak cut into cubes or thin slices
  • 2 cups fresh green beans trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ cup onion thinly sliced
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Ground black pepper to taste
  • cooked rice for serving

Instructions

  1. Whisk together soy sauce, wine, honey and garlic in large bowl. Add steak and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
  2. Blanch green beans in large pot of boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Drain. Rinse under cold water; drain well.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in heavy large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Drain meat well, reserving marinade. Add cornstarch to reserved marinade and stir until smooth; set aside. Add steak to wok or skillet and stir-fry until almost cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  4. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add onion and green beans. Stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Return beef to the skillet. Cook until the meat is done, another minute or two. Stir the reserved marinade and add to the skillet. Stir until sauce thickens and coats meat and vegetables, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and pepper.
  5. Serve over rice.
