    Thanks to the skirt steak's generous marbling, you don't need much extra oil for a stir-fry with bok choy.

    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • 2 garlic cloves, minced
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 1 pound skirt steak, thinly sliced crosswise

      This was good! I added some fresh ginger. Next time I think I will omit the corn starch on the steak and add it to the sauce instead, it made the steak a little slimy

      This sauce was great. I added fried tofu and left the steak out to make it veggie friendly. Also added mushrooms.

      I don't understand. The text next to the photo suggests you're supposed to add cheese to this. But the recipe itself doesn't list it in ingredients or directions.
