P.F. Chang's Mongolian Beef (Copycat)

Step 1

Combine all marinade ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until combined. Pour into a zip-lock back with beef strips, seal and chill 1 hour or overnight. Drain marinade from zip-lock and set beef aside.

Step 2

To make the sauce, in a medium sauce pan whisk together toasted sesame oil, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Stir and heat over medium high heat until brown sugar has dissolved.

Step 3

While sauce is cooking, whisk together corn starch and water in a small bowl until corn starch is dissolved.

Step 4

Bring sauce to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and stir in corn starch-water mixture. Allow sauce to thicken slightly, then remove from heat.

Step 5

In a large pan or skillet, cook beef strips over medium high heat until cooked through (5-8 mins) turning strips over throughout to ensure even cooking, reduce heat to medium.

Step 6

Add 1/2-1 cup of sauce (depending on how "saucy" you want your beef). Stir and cook 1-2 minutes longer.

Step 7

Serve over rice with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!
