Note
Use beef sirloin or flank steak for best results; slice against the grain for tenderness.
Ensure the wok is very hot before adding the beef to achieve a proper sear.
If you prefer a lighter sauce, reduce the amount of chicken stock slightly.
Serve over steamed white rice or noodles for a complete meal.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet to maintain texture.
