Ingredients

• 1 lb, thinly sliced against the grain Beef Strip Loin Steak

• 3 tbsp Soy Sauce (low sodium)
• 3 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 tbsp minced Ginger
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch

Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp brown sugar, and 1 tsp rice vinegar. Set aside.
2. Slice beef into thin strips against the grain. Marinate with 1 beaten egg and 1 tbsp cornstarch for 10 minutes.
