In this video, I’ll show you how to make the perfect steak stir fry. I’ll start by heating up a wok or large skillet over high heat and add a little bit of oil. I’ll cook the steak until it’s browned on all sides, then I’ll add my favorite vegetables and stir-fry them until they’re tender-crisp. Finally, I’ll add soy sauce and chili sauce.
This steak stir fry is so easy to make, and it’s sure to become a new family favorite. Give it a try tonight!
Cut your steak into thin strips and cut again into bite size pieces. It is easiest to cut if it is slightly frozen.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. I let my oil heat to 350F. I use my infrared thermometer to check the temperature.

Add the steak and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked to desired doneness. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the Bok choy, snow peas, and broccoli to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for another minute.
Next add the chicken broth, soy sauce and chili sauce. Make a thickener with corn starch and some broth and add it to the pan.
Add the cashews, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute, or until the sauce is heated through.
Return the steak to the pan and stir to combine. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!
Here are some additional tips for making the perfect steak stir fry:
- Thinly slice the steak while it is still slightly frozen.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the steak into thin strips. This will help the steak cook quickly and evenly.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan. If you add too much food to the pan at once, it will steam instead of stir-fry.
- Cook the steak until it’s browned on all sides, but don’t overcook it. Overcooked steak will be tough and chewy.
- Stir-fry the vegetables until they’re tender-crisp. Don’t overcook them, or they will become mushy.
- Adjust the sauce to your taste. Add more soy sauce or chili sauce oil to taste.
- For a more flavorful stir fry, marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
