Ingredients

Steak:

2 pounds rib-eye, cut into 1 1/2- to 2-ounce pieces

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 tablespoons avocado oil

5 ounces cremini mushrooms, quartered

1 bunch broccolini, stalks trimmed

1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 small yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons minced ginger

6 scallions, thinly sliced, whites and greens separated

4 cloves garlic, minced

Sauce:

1/3 cup orange juice

1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

1 tablespoon honey

2 teaspoons cornstarch

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Fresh cilantro leaves and sesame seeds, for topping

Directions

  1. For the steak: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with the salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the skillet. Sear the steak pieces until brown on the surface and medium-rate, about 45 seconds per side. Set aside.
  2. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet, then add the mushrooms, broccolini and red and yellow bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables soften slightly, a couple of minutes. Add the ginger, scallion whites and garlic and cook until very fragrant, 45 seconds to a minute.
  3. For the sauce: Mix the orange juice, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, cornstarch, red pepper flakes and sesame oil in a small bowl. Add to the skillet and allow it to boil and thicken, tossing everything together and coating it in the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the steak to the sauce and stir to coat in the sauce also.
  4. Garnish with cilantro, scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve by itself or over rice.
