Directions
  1. 1
    Slice the flank steak against the grain into 2-inch wide pieces, then slice each piece horizontally into 2 or 3 thinner layers.

    Cut the thin layers into 1/4-inch wide strips.
  3. 3
    Toss the beef strips with cornstarch until evenly coated.
  4. 4
    Place the coated beef in a bowl, sprinkle with brown sugar and soy sauce, and toss to combine. Set aside to marinate while prepping vegetables.
  5. 5
    Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.

    Add sliced mushrooms and stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
  8. 8
    Add bean sprouts and toss for a few seconds until just wilted.

  13. 13
    Return the vegetables to the wok. Toss everything together over high heat for 30 seconds to combine flavors.
