Notes

Serve over Jasmine rice, asian noodles, or other favorite grain.

The first time we made this we added the corn starch to the beef. I do not recommend doing this a it made a sticky mess in the wok to start. We have made it since and simply mix the cornstarch with the sauce.

In the video we made this using some zucchini slices and while it was delish for the meal, the leftover meal prep dish was too watery- If you are planning to eat this as a meal prep do not use zucchini.
