Ingredients
- 1 lb flank steak thinly slices, against the grain
- 1 head broccoli cut into small florets
- 1 red bell pepper julienne cut
- 3 whole bok choy halved
- 1 half red onion thinly sliced
- 1 package Thai rice noodles wide, pad thai cut
- ½ cup tamari sauce or Soy (non GF)
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp garlic minced or pressed
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ginger freshly grated
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp arrowroot starch/flour or cornstarch
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- ¼ tsp white pepper
Instructions
- Submerge the rice noodles in boiling water for about 5 minutes, then place them into a mesh strainer to drain. Set aside for later.
- Slice Bok choy lengthwise, rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any grit. Pay close attention to stem and use your fingers to loosen the leaves so dirt rinses away easily.
- Combine tamari, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, arrowroot flour, red pepper flakes, and white pepper in medium sized mixing bowl. Mix and set aside.
- Heat 2 tbsp of oil in large skillet or wok over medium high heat. Work in batches to sear flank steak. Do not overcrowd pan-very important! Turning once, about 3-4 min per side. Set aside
- Sear bok choy, sliced side facing down. 3 mins, and then flip. Add 2 tbsp water to steam. Water will evaporate and bok choy leaves will be wilted. Set Aside.
- If there is any water left in pan, dump out over sink. But there probably wont be, it the heat is high enough.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil, add bell pepper, onion and broccoli. Stir to sear veggies, about 5 minutes.
- Add the tamari sauce mixture to skillet and let simmer with veggies for 5 minutes to bring to boil. The arrowroot flour will act as a thickener.
- Add the steak, noodles and Boy choy. Using tongs, toss to combine. All noodles, veggies and meat should be coated with sauce. Serve warm and Enjoy!
