Tenderizing Beef for Chinese Cooking

Mainely Debbie's Note:

I have no idea where I got this recipe; I found it on a piece of paper among all my lose recipes. I added a dash of Accent to the marinade and let the meat marinade overnight. The beef came out tender, I used the beef to make beef and broccoli. I used sirloin steak sliced thin for my beef. The recipe calls for 1 pound of beef. I didn't include marinating time in the cooking time.
