Ingredients

• 2 (8-ounce) beef steaks (ribeye or sirloin)
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 cup carrots, julienned
• 1 cup bell peppers, julienned (any color)
• 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for cooking)

How to Make Tender Beef Steak with Soy Glaze

1. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Set aside.
2. Season both sides of the beef steaks with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
3. Once the skillet is hot, add the steaks. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time according to your desired doneness. Remove the steaks and let them rest for 5 minutes.
4. In the same skillet, add the julienned carrots and bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender yet still crisp.
5. Pour the soy glaze over the vegetables in the skillet and toss to coat evenly. Allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
6. Slice the rested steak against the grain and arrange it on plates. Top with the glazed vegetables and sprinkle with chopped green onions.

Tips for the Best Results

• Let the steak come to room temperature before cooking for more even cooking.
• Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for desired doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
• Allow the steak to rest after cooking to keep it juicy.
• Feel free to add other vegetables like snap peas or zucchini for variety.

Easy Variations

• Substitute beef with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
• Add a splash of chili sauce to the glaze for a spicy kick.
• Use different vegetables according to your preference or seasonal availability.

What to Serve With It

• Steamed jasmine rice or quinoa for a hearty base
• A fresh garden salad with a light vinaigrette
• Garlic bread or crusty rolls to soak up the soy glaze
• Roasted potatoes for a comforting side
