Can You Cook Carrots Ib Mongolian Beef

Flavorful Mongolian beef just like you get at the restaurants! This 30-minute beef and veggies skillet is absolutely perfect for a busy weeknight.—just add hot rice and dinner's ready!

On a scale of 1 to 10…I'm at about a 300 as far as my readiness for dinner goes.

30-minute Mongolian beef and veggies skillet can do that to a person. Make you feel like you're ready for dinner at only 8am and not feel that it's wrong?

My obsession with Mongolian food actually began when I started dating Jason back in August. He introduced me to Huhot which quickly became our favorite restaurant. It's kinda like a Hibachi-style restaurant only it's Mongolian where you build a bowl with noodles/rice, different meats and vegetables and TONS of different flavors of sauces and condiments. Then you take it over to the cooks station and they cook it right in front of you on their flattops.

It's so fun, so dang delicious, and I would honestly eat there every night if I was a millionaire. Since I'm not quite there yet…I decided to try to make some Huhot-style recipes at home. Enter, Mongolian beef and vegetables skillet!

So honestly, guys, it almost amazed me how quickly and easily this Mongolian beef skillet pulled together. If you're one of those people who believes restaurant-style food is long and complicated to make and doesn't even turn out half as good as a restaurant…don't believe that anymore!!

Seriously, look at this skillet and tell me you're with me on this one.

Here's how this beef goes down, guys. >> First we saute our veggies. I use a combo of onion, broccoli, carrots, and sweet peppers, but if none of these veggies float your boat—leave 'em out or sub in for others! Anything goes here.

Next, we make room for our beef. I coat the beef very lightly in cornstarch and into the pan it goes. Once the beef begins to brown shortly later…sauce time!!

So simple yet it's the flavor clincher here. Soy sauce, a cornstarch slurry to thicken, ginger, sugar, salt and pepper…that's basically it.

Throw all the veggies back in the skillet and let everything hang out and soak up all that gorgeous sauce. Green onions go on top…hot rice at the ready because Monglian beef and veggies are comin' for ya.

Or you're coming for it. Whichever you prefer as long as you get this in your face asaaaap.
