Ingredients

Directions

  1. Slice the boneless lean beef steak into thin strips against the grain for tenderness.
  2. Heat salad oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the beef strips to the skillet and sear until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add sliced onions. Cook until softened and lightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Stir in minced garlic and grated fresh ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  6. Return the beef to the skillet. Add soy sauce, sugar, and pepper.
  7. Stir well to combine, allowing the sugar to dissolve and the sauce to thicken slightly, about 2 minutes.
  8. Fold in the chopped roasted hazelnuts and toss to coat the beef and onions evenly.
  9. Warm the pocket bread rounds according to package instructions or in a toaster oven.
  10. Spoon the beef and onion mixture into the pockets, dividing evenly among the four servings.
  11. Serve immediately while hot.
