thinly sliced against the grain

¼ cupcoconut oil

3Green onions
cut into 1-inch long diagonal slices
Sauce
Instructions
Step 1
Cut the Flat Iron Steak into very thin slices against the grain.
Step 2
Add the sliced beef to a small ziplock bag and add the coconut aminos, peeled and grated root ginger (do not use powdered ginger), and garlic. Let marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.
Step 3
When you are ready to cook, drain the meat from the marinade but reserve the liquid for later.
Step 4
Add the coconut oil to a large wok or cast iron skillet and heat it until it’s almost smoking, the oil must be hot so you can get the nice crispy edges on the beef.
Step 5
Add the beef to the very hot oil (you may need to do it in two batches, don’t crowd the pan) and keep stir frying over a high heat, taking care not to burn it for just 1-3 minutes.
Step 6
When the last batch of meat is in, add the green onions and cook for the last 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Step 7
If you want more ‘sauce’ to serve with the meat quickly cook the remaining marinade for just a minute or two in your wok after the last batch of beef has been cooked, and serve with the beef.
Step 8
Serve immediately!
