How to Make It
- Toss beef with cornstarch and a splash of soy sauce; let sit 10 minutes.
- Sear beef in a very hot pan 1–2 minutes until browned; remove.
- Stir-fry snow peas 2–3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
- Whisk remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger; return beef, add sauce, toss until glossy; serve over rice.
- Serve with cucumber salad on the side.
No-Time-For-That Tip: A very hot pan and a short cook time is the whole game — walk away and you get gray, chewy meat.
Swap It: Green beans or broccoli work the same way if snow peas aren't available.
