Make
-
Position top rack of the oven so it’s about 6” (or 15 cm) away from broiler. Place steak on a sheet pan and broil for 3 minutes each side for rare, 4 minutes for medium-rare, 6 minutes for medium, or 7 1/2 minutes for well-done. When steak is done, cover with foil and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
-
While steak is cooking, heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and then green onions to heated oil. Saute for ~2 minutes.
-
Next add napa cabbage and saute for another 3 minutes.
-
Add in edamame and noodles. Push ingredients to the side of the wok forming a donut in the middle. Give your stir-fry sauce a stir and then pour sauce into the hole. Wait for it to darken and bubble before tossing all the ingredients together to mix with sauce.
-
Remove from heat and finish with lime juice. Season to taste with salt, pepper or any of the condiments that went into the stir-fry sauce.
-
Slice steak into 1/2” (or 1.25 cm) thick pieces. Make sure to slice against the grain for the most tender chew. Look for how the fibers run in the steak, and then slice perpendicular to those fibers.
-
Top noodles with sliced steak or mix right into noodles. Enjoy!
