Easy Spicy Beef Topped With A Fried Egg




I can't remember where I found this recipe but I just ran across it. I love to add a fried egg to spicy beef dishes. It's a compliment to the spice and it adds an extra dose of the perfect protein.

Easy Spicy Beef Stir-Fry

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 pound beef flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon peanut oil
  • 2 large green onions, thinly sliced
Directions
  1. Whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, sugar, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Toss beef with marinade, cover, and refrigerate 1 hour to overnight.
  2. Heat peanut oil in a wok or large, nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the green onions, and cook for 5 to 10 seconds before stirring in the beef. Cook and stir until the beef is no longer pink and is beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
  3. Fry an egg in a hot skillet so it is brown and crispy around the edges. Flip it and cook just long enough to set the yolk. Place it on top of the beef and serve.
