Pin a Day: Mongolian Beef

The past few weeks, I've been trying to get back into the swing of cooking from my Pinterest files.  This week, I tried Mongolian Beef, which was a copycat of PF Chang's recipe.  I made a few modifications to the recipe, in order to make a few more leftovers.  First, I cut the flank steak into bite sized pieces and coated it in cornstarch.  I let it sit about 10 minutes.  During that time, I started my water for some basmati rice and started working on the sauce.  I cooked the meat until it was browned.  Next, I added the sauce and meat back to the pan and cooked it for a few minutes.  Then, I added in the green onions, some shredded carrots, and frozen broccoli.  I continued to cook until the broccoli was cooked through and tender.  Once everything had cooked, we were ready to eat.  It was really good and Mike commented that it tasted a lot like the Mongolian Beef at PF Chang's.  This is definitely a great Asian dish, that we will be making again.
