Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • hanger steak
Cut the hanger steak into thin pieces.
  • kosher salt
  • coarse ground black pepper
  • cornstarch
In a big bowl, season the beef with kosher salt and coarse black pepper, then a light dusting of cornstarch until reasonably coated; set aside.
  • orange zest
  • ½ cup orange juice
  • soy
  • rice vinegar
Make the sauce: orange zest, about half a cup of orange juice, soy, rice vinegar, sugar and chili flakes; mix to dissolve the sugar.
Making the orange sauce
  • sugar
  • chili flakes
  • oil
In a screaming-hot pan with a thin layer of oil, cook the beef in batches, spread out, until crisp around the edges; take it out.
  • sliced red pepper
Reheat the pan, add a touch more oil and sliced red pepper or other vegetables; cook a couple of minutes to soften.
  • minced garlic
  • ginger
Add a bit more oil, minced garlic and ginger; cook about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sauce and cook a minute or so until it thickens from the sugar.
  • green onion
Return the beef and toss to coat; add a handful of green onion, kill the heat, mix and top with more green onion.
