Low Fat Mongolian Beef

I found a version of this because we love the PF Changs version so much. I adapted it from Tish's PF Chang's Mongolian Beef Recipe (Recipe Number 66121). I adapted it and found the weight watchers points as: 9 points per serving...this does not include rice. It is one of our super favorites! (Most of the time I only use 1 tsp of the olive oil.)

• Ready In: 40 mins
• Serves: 3

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
• 1  tablespoon fresh garlic
• 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
• 1⁄2 cup water
• 3⁄4 cup brown sugar, do not pack
• 3⁄4 lb  flank steak
• 1⁄4 cup cornstarch
• 1  bunch green onion, cut in 1 1/2 in strips
•  cooked rice

Directions

1. Slice the flank steak against the grain and toss in ¼ cup of cornstarch. (I use a large zip loc bag)
2. Make sauce: Heat ½ tsp olive oil, add ginger and garlic. Cook but don’t burn. Add the soy sauce, water and brown sugar – bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and place sauce in a separate bowl.
3. Add 1 tsp oil and brown beef (if the beef seems oily you might want to take it out of the skillet and let drain on a paper towel)
4. Add sauce, green onions and cook through
5. Serve with rice.
