How to cook deliciously - Shaking Beef

1. Stage

In a large bowl, combine the garlic, sherry, soy sauce, sugar, pepper, and five-spice powder with the 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the beef and turn to coat thoroughly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or overnight.

2. Stage

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce with the vegetable oil, sherry, red wine vinegar, minced ginger, sugar, garlic, and lemongrass. Let stand for 30 minutes, stirring a few times.

3. Stage

Mound the watercress and red onion on a platter and toss with half of the vinaigrette. Set 2 large skillets over high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to each skillet; when shimmering, add the meat to both skillets in an even layer. Let cook undisturbed, until richly browned on the bottom, about 1 1/2 minutes. Shake the skillet to release the meat and cook for about 30 seconds longer, until medium-rare. Scrape the beef onto the watercress. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette, toss lightly and serve right away. Looking for more dinner options? Check out our pork chop recipes, chicken recipes, and potato recipes.
