Step:

  1. Slice beef into pieces. Mine were about 1/2 inch by 2 inches. But make them whatever size you like. I was using a sirloin steak this time. I cut it in half lengthwise, and sliced each half.

  4. In a small container, I used a coffee mug, mix together the sauce ingredients. Set aside

  5. Using a stir-fry, wok, or skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil, heat on medium high

  6. Add about 1/3 of your fresh chillies, sliced or diced, to oil, stir for about 30 seconds

  14. Give sauce one final stir, add to pan, keep stirring

  15. When the sauce has reduced and thickened, reduce heat to medium low, stir 1 minute to allow heat to reduce in pan.

  16. Add cilantro and green onions, stir for 1 more minute

  17. Serve. We usually serve ours over rice, but I could see this over noodles also.
