Savory Teriyaki Beef Stir-Fry

Beef Teriyaki Recipe

Ingredients:

• 300 grams of lean beef (select quality cuts)
• 2 medium onions, halved and sliced roughly
• 2 large green chilies, sliced (adjust to taste)
• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated
• 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
• 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Oil, as needed for cooking

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef: Begin by washing the beef thoroughly and slicing it thinly. Set aside.

2. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mix well. Add the sliced beef to this marinade, ensuring it is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, allowing the flavors to infuse into the meat.

3. Cook the Aromatics: Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt. Sauté half of the sliced onions and green chilies until fragrant and softened.

4. Sear the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the pan. Stir-fry until the beef is browned and cooked through, adding a splash of water if needed to create a bit of sauce and to ensure the beef cooks evenly.

5. Finish Cooking: Once the beef is nearly done, add the remaining sliced onions to the pan. Continue to cook until the onions are tender and slightly caramelized.

6. Serve: Remove from heat. Transfer the beef teriyaki to a serving dish. Serve hot with steamed rice or your favorite side dishes.
