Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 1 lb thinly sliced flank steak and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just browned but still tender. Remove beef and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the pan, then add 1 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Add 2 cups sliced shiitake mushrooms and 2 cups trimmed snow peas to the pan. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Step 4: Return beef to the pan and add 3 tbsp coconut aminos, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through and sauce lightly coats ingredients.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 thinly sliced green onions before serving.
