Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoon Sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1/2 cup Soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 pound Boneless lean beef steak
Directions
  1. 1
    Slice the boneless lean beef steak into thin strips against the grain for tenderness.
  2. 2
    Heat salad oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. 3
    Add the beef strips to the skillet and sear until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.

  6. 6
    Return the beef to the skillet. Add soy sauce, sugar, and pepper.
  7. 7
    Stir well to combine, allowing the sugar to dissolve and the sauce to thicken slightly, about 2 minutes.
  8. 8
    Fold in the chopped roasted hazelnuts and toss to coat the beef and onions evenly.
  9. 9
    Warm the pocket bread rounds according to package instructions or in a toaster oven.
