Sweet & Spicy Steak Stir Fry
Would you like to save this?
Ingredients
- 1 – 1 ½ pounds boneless sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 bunches green onions, tops cut into 2-inch pieces, cut the white portion in half lengthwise
- ½ cup unsulphered molasses
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- Hot cooked rice, for serving
Instructions
- In a large skillet or wok, stir fry the beef in oil for 4-5 minutes. Add the green onions, molasses, salt, and cayenne.
- Stir fry the mixture for 4-5 minutes or until heated through.
- Serve over rice.
Notes
- If you prefer, you can also cut the beef into bite-sized cubes (about 1/2-inch to 1-inch cubes).
- Make this dish even easier and faster by looking for beef stir-fry meat in your grocer’s meat case.
- Try this recipe with fresh broccoli, bell pepper with onion, fresh snow peas, or fresh green beans in place of the green onions.
- For a thinner sauce, omit the salt and add a few tablespoons of soy sauce.

This sounds delicious and super easy. It kinda reminds me of Mongolian Beef but looks ALOT easier to make. Perfect!
