Ingredients
2 inside round marinating steak, or 4 fast-fry eye-of-round steaks, about 500-g total
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp granulated sugar
5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp dark sesame oil
1/4 tsp pepper
2 green onions
vegetable oil
Instructions
If steaks are large, cut in half. In a pie plate, stir soy with sugar, garlic, sesame oil, pepper and onions. Add steaks and turn to evenly coat. Marinate at room temperature, 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
Lightly coat a large frying pan with oil and set over high heat. When hot, remove steaks from marinade and place in pan. Cook until browned, 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium if steaks start to burn. Pour marinade (including onions) over steaks. Cook until sauce is slightly thickened, turning steaks occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Place on plates and pour sauce overtop. Great with rice and stir-fried bok choy or spinach.

These steaks sizzle up with lots of sauce, so have some rice on hand. They're also super thin, so they don't need long to marinate - and they cook up quickly.
