  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Vegetables

Instructions

  • Slice beef into thin strips, about ⅛-inch thick, cutting against the grain at a slight angle. Add the meat to a medium bowl. Top with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine. Set in the refrigerator to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
