Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Lean beef sirloin
- 1 pound Asparagus
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the beef into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, cutting against the grain for tenderness.
Trim tough ends off the asparagus and cut the stalks into 2-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water to make the sauce. Set aside.
Finely mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
Heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil and 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Season the beef strips with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Toss in the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the asparagus to the skillet and stir-fry for 3 minutes, until it starts to become tender but still has a slight crunch.
Return the beef to the skillet, along with the sauce mixture. Stir to coat everything evenly and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If desired, garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve the stir-fried beef and asparagus hot, over steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.
