QUICK, EASY MEALS are the Hallmark of almost every parent I know. Here’s my super easy recipe for a Crazy Tender Mongolian Beef Recipe that is perfect for any night of the week.

 

I’m a father of 2, husband and…pretty consistently busy. Aren’t we all? To make life easier this Fall we connected with Harding, the owner of Nelson Farms and got a bunch of meat for our freezer. When he dropped off our beef we chatted about the various dishes I planned on making.

I thought it might be a good way to showcase HOW EASY it is to make super tasty dishes showcasing their hormone-free fed beef, we settled on my SUPER easy Mongolian Beef.

Prep-to-table time, less than 30 minutes.

One of the keys to working with FLANK STEAK is: you have to understand how the grain works. In the case of THIS recipe, you want to thinly slice your flank steak AGAINST the grain, creating a massive pile of gorgeously marbled beef that’ll render down into tender morsels of “OMG THIS IS SO GOOD”, I promise.

PRO TIP: if you’re having trouble slicing the Flank steak super thin: place it in the freezer for about a half an hour to an hour (max), then slice.  It’ll firm up enough to be cut. IF YOU GO THIS ROUTE:  Allow the steak enough time to come up to close to room temp before cooking, so the meat doesn’t toughen up on you.

Let’s Wok, shall we?
