Directions

Slice the flank steak against the grain into small strips. Slice the scallions and chilies. Put the steak in a bowl and toss with the corn starch until they are well coated. Allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes until the corn starch has absorbed most of the moisture.

In a skillet or wok, heat the oils and saute the ginger, chilies, scallions, and garlic. Add in the brown sugar until dissolved, then the chicken stock and soy sauce.

Place the beef strips into the sauce and stir in any remaining corn starch. Add in chopped cashews. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until the meat is fully cooked and serve hot.
