Note

For best results, slice the beef against the grain to ensure tenderness. You can partially freeze the steak for 30 minutes to make slicing easier.

If dry sherry is unavailable, you can substitute with dry white wine or a splash of rice vinegar mixed with a little water.

To make this dish gluten-free, ensure you use tamari instead of regular soy sauce.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture.

Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli florets or snap peas for extra nutrition and color.
