How to Make Chinese Beef With Onions
- In a bowl, combine thinly sliced beef, salt, egg white, and cornstarch. Mix thoroughly with your hands until the beef is evenly coated.
- Heat 1/2 cup of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Deep-fry until the beef is seared and slightly browned on all sides.
- Remove the seared beef from the pan and set aside; drain on paper towels.
- Reheat 2 tablespoons of oil in the same wok or skillet over medium heat.
- Add the thinly sliced onions and stir-fry for 15-20 minutes, or until they are soft, caramelized, and well-browned. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
- Add the seared beef back to the wok or skillet along with the sherry, brown sugar, and soy sauce.
- Stir-fry for 1 minute, allowing the beef to become glazed and coated in the sauce.
- Serve the Chinese Beef with Onions hot over a bed of cooked rice. Enjoy!
