Ingredients

  • STEAK:
  • 1 pound steak, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1/2 to 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons ginger paste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons butter or oil
  • FOR ASSEMBLY:
  • 1/4 cup green onion, thinly sliced

Method

  1. Simmer the soy sauce, oyster sauce, chili paste, black pepper, garlic, ginger paste, brown sugar and rice vinegar in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Stir the cornstarch and water together, add it to the pan and stir as the sauce thickens, then take it off the heat and set it aside in a bowl.
  3. Heat a tablespoon of the butter or oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Mound a serving of cooked jasmine rice in the center and arrange a portion of the sliced steak around it.
  4. Drizzle sauce over the steak and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until the steak is done to your liking and everything sizzles together.
  5. Scatter the corn and green onions over the top, finish with extra cracked black pepper and serve the skillet hot.
