Ingredients
-
1/2 lb. steak
2 chopped garlic cloves
3 T. lime juice
1 t. olive oil
3 bell peppers
1 onion
2 1/2 c. asparagus
1 T. fresh ginger
1 T. low-sodium soy sauce
2 t. sesame oil
2 c. cooked brown rice
1/2 c. fresh chopped cilantro
2 T. chopped cashews
Tips
I usually cook the steak and then slice it into strips. I also will just throw the cilantro and cashews into the pot instead of dividing it on plates, etc. If people want more cashews or soy sauce, I have it available for them.
Directions
Cut steak crosswise into 1/4-inch thick strips. Toss together with 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped, and 2 T. lime juice. Marinate for 15 minutes.
Heat 1/2 t. olive oil in a wok or nonstick skillet over med-high heat. Cook the steak with the marinade, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes or until medium rare. Transfer with slotted spoon to a large bowl and set aside. Add 3 bell pepper, sliced, and 1 onion, sliced to the wok; cook, stirring, for about 7 minutes or until just tender. Transfer the pepper and onions to a bowl with the steak. Add 1/2 t. olive oil and 2 1/2 cups diagonally cut asparagus to wok; cook, stirring for about 4 minutes or until just tender. Put the pepper-onion and steak mixture back in the wok.
Add 1 T. grated peeled fresh ginger, 1 T. low-sodium soy sauce, 2 t. sesame oil, and 1 T lime juice to wok; cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes or until heated through. Add 2 cups cooked brown rice to the wok; heat for 2 minutes. Divide the stir-fry among 4 plates and distribute 1/2 c. chopped fresh cilantro and 2 T. chopped cashews evenly on top. Serve.
