Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Coconut Aminos
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ¾ teaspoon salt divided
  • 1 pound boneless top sirloin steak trimmed and cut against the grain, into ⅛" slices
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 cups asparagus ends trimmed and cut diagonally into 2" pieces
  • 2 cups sugar snap peas
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into matchsticks
  • 1 cup beef bone broth
  • 2 teaspoons arrowroot
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame seeds
  • ¼ cup green onion

Instructions

  • IN A MEDIUM BOWL, combine the coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, and salt. Add the beef and mix well. Let the beef stand at room temperature while cooking the vegetables.
  • IN A LARGE SKILLET, heat 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, peppers and snap peas. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
  • ADD 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the skillet. Add the beef and cook, stirring, until slightly pink in the center, 2-3 minutes. Return the vegetables to the skillet.
  • IN A SMALL BOWL, whisk together the broth, arrowroot, and pepper flakes until smooth. Push the meat and vegetables to the edges of the skillet. Pour the broth mixture into the center. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Stir the meat and vegetables into the sauce. Transfer the stir-fry to a large serving bowl and cover to keep warm.
