The dish uses inexpensive ingredients to offer big flavor in a small amount of time.

"I marinated the beef in garlic and ginger for a few hours before I made the dish. I also used beef broth instead of chicken. The dish was wonderful. My husband thought it tasted alot like his favorite dish at the vietnamese restaurant in our town. Very nice, simple and fast dinner." - nraewarren

    Marinated beef in teriyaki sauce for 2 hours, but otherwise followed the recipe and it turned out perfect.

    Delicious. I used onions instead of green onions and used a hot sesame oil for some heat. Next time I pair with my homemade fried rice.

    Excellent! Marinated meat in ginger, garlic, and soy for 2 hrs prior to cooking. So delicious!

    The sesame taste was a little overpowering, I'd use maybe 1/2 the amount next time. I wasn't a fan, buy my husband loved it.
