Preparation: Getting Ready to Cook
Preheat the Griddle:
Start by preheating your griddle to low. Thinly slice the two yellow onions. Slice the white parts of the onions thinly and cut the green parts into 2-inch pieces. Next, slice the steaks into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Add the marinade ingredients to the bowl and mix well. Let the mixture marinate for about 15 minutes.
Cook the Onions:
Once the meat is marinated, apply some oil on the griddle. Add the yellow onions and the white parts of the green onions together. While the onions are cooking, prepare the stir fry sauce by mixing all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup.
Sear the Meat:
Move the onions to one side of the griddle. Increase the temperature to around 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Add some avocado oil to the griddle and lay the marinated meat in thin layers. Keep an eye on the onions while flipping the meat. After 30-45 seconds, start to incorporate the onions back in.
Combine with Sauce:
Once the onions are thoroughly mixed in, it's time to add the stir fry sauce. You can create a small well in the meat if you like. Mix the sauce well into the meat, ensuring everything is well coated.
Finalize the Stir Fry:
Toss in the green parts of the green onions into the mix. Stir until well combined. This adds a vibrant color and flavor to your dish.
Serve and Enjoy:
Carefully remove the stir fry from the griddle and place it on a plate. Top it off with sesame seeds for a delightful crunch. Enjoy your delicious beef and onion stir fry as a main course!
Tips for the Best Stir Fry
Marinate Longer: If you have time, let the meat marinate for longer. This helps to enhance the flavors even more.
Vegetable Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas for added nutrition and flavor.
