Ingredients
Instructions
- Wash and dry all produce. Peel and mince the ginger. Trim and thinly slice the scallions, separating the whites from the greens. Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Trim and halve the zucchini lengthwise, then slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
- In a small pot, combine the jasmine rice, 1¼ cups water (or 2¼ cups for 4 servings) and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
- While the rice cooks, pat the steak dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook to your desired doneness, 3-6 minutes per side. Turn off the heat, transfer the steak to a cutting board and wipe out the pan.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the minced ginger, scallion greens, 2 tablespoons oil (4 tablespoons for 4 servings) and a pinch of salt. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir and set aside.
- Heat a large drizzle of oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add the scallion whites, onion, zucchini and broccoli. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, 5-7 minutes. Stir in the sweet soy glaze, sesame dressing, sweet Thai chili sauce and ¼ cup water (½ cup for 4 servings). Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Divide the steak, rice and vegetable stir-fry between plates. Drizzle any remaining sauce from the pan over the steak. Spoon the scallion-ginger oil over the rice as desired. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve.
Recipe Tips
For best results, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
If you prefer extra heat, add more sweet chili sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
