Thai Steak and Green Bean Stir Fry
From: Mary @ barefeetinthekitchen.com/thai-steak-and-green-bean-stir-fry/
Fresh green beans, ginger, and garlic are quickly sauteed with tender strips of beef before being tossed in a light savory sauce to create this easy Steak Stir Fry. I’m all for quick and easy dinners most nights and this one absolutely qualifies.
Unlike most stir-fries, this wholly savory steak stir-fry with green beans has no sweet and sour or sweet and spicy component. It is simply savory and delicious without any added sugars.
This is a personal favorite. It will keep well in the refrigerator for a few days, so you can take the leftovers to work for lunch.
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 25 min
Makes: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon coconut oil or light flavored olive oil
1 lb skirt steak cut against the grain into very thin strips
1 lb green beanstrimmed
3 inch piece of ginger about 1/4 cup peeled and cut into very thin matchsticks
4 cloves garlic minced
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons fish sauce or soy sauce
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves roughly chopped, plus more for topping
cooked rice for serving
Instructions
In a very large skillet, warm the oil over medium-high heat.
Add the steak and cook, tossing or stirring constantly just until browned, about 4 minutes.
Remove the cooked steak to a plate.
Add the green beans, ginger, and garlic to the juices left in the skillet.
Toss to combine, add water, and cover with lid.
Continue cooking over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.
Uncover and continue tossing the green beans in the skillet constantly until the green beans are crisp-tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Return the beef and any juices to the skillet along with the fish sauce and basil.
Toss quickly to coat and cook about a minute.
Sprinkle with more basil, if desired and serve immediately, by itself or over rice.
Enjoy!
