How to Make 3 Dragons Szechuan Steak

  1. Partially freeze beef sirloin and slice thinly against the grain.
  2. In a bowl, toss beef with 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Marinate for 15-30 minutes.
  3. Thinly slice 1 medium onion, dice 1 stalk of celery, and mince 2 cloves of garlic.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger.
  5. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat until almost smoking. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste).
  6. Add the marinated beef to the hot wok in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until the beef is medium-rare, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  7. Add the sliced onion and diced celery to the wok and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for another 15 seconds.
  8. Return the cooked beef to the wok.
  9. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and vegetables.
  10. Toss everything together and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and coated the ingredients evenly.
  11. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately. Enjoy with cold sesame noodles!
