Notes

If you don't have all the ingredients on hand, you can substitute steak with thinly sliced chicken, pork, or tofu. Try adding minced garlic or ginger to the oil for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat gently. To keep the rice from becoming soggy, serve it separately from the stir-fry until you're ready to eat.
