Ingredients
Scale
For the Marinated Steak:
- 12 ounces flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
For the Noodles:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 8 ounces rice noodles or spaghetti, cooked according to package directions
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 2 green onions, sliced
- Optional: sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Marinate the Steak: In a medium bowl, toss the sliced steak with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
- Cook the Steak: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon butter. Sear the steak in batches until browned and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
- Prepare the Noodles: Add the remaining butter to the skillet along with the garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking until fragrant and lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the cooked noodles, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and brown sugar. Toss well to coat.
- Combine and Serve: Return the steak to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for 1–2 more minutes until heated through. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lime juice or a drizzle of chili oil before serving.
- You can substitute chicken or shrimp for the steak if preferred.
