How to Make Beef Stir Fry

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp grated ginger, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional). Microwave for 15-20 seconds, or until honey is slightly thinned. Stir to combine.
2. Let the marinade cool completely.
3. Trim excess fat from 1 lb beef sirloin. Thinly slice the beef. Place the beef in a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Add the cooled marinade, remove excess air, seal, and refrigerate for 4-48 hours.
4. Remove beef from marinade; reserve marinade. Drain the beef in a colander.
5. Heat 1 tsp sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly browned.
6. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
7. Add 2 cups of chopped mixed vegetables and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Cover and bring to a simmer.
8. Cook until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
9. Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside with the beef.
10. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring to a boil.
11. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water), stirring constantly, until the sauce reaches your desired thickness.
12. Add the beef and vegetable mixture back to the skillet. Toss to coat evenly.
13. Serve immediately over cooked white rice.
