Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds skirt steak, cut into 4-inch pieces and then cut against the grain into ¼-inch thick slices
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Serrano chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (1 to 2 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 bunch of scallions, thinly sliced
  • 6 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • ¼ pound snow peas or green beans
  • 1 12-ounce can baby corn, drained
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar, lime juice, and chopped serrano peppers. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved
  • Mix in the beef strips and set aside
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet until hot, about a minute. Add the beef strips and cook until no pink is showing about 3-4 minutes
  • Remove the beef and set aside, leaving the juices in the skillet, and cook them until reduced and thick. Add the sliced scallions and minced garlic and cook for one minute until fragrant.
  • Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 more minutes. Mix in the rest of the veggies and cook them until tender but still crisp, about 2 more minutes
  • Transfer the beef back into the skillet and cook a couple of minutes more until the meat is heated through. Season with salt and pepper
