Beef Chow Fun

I love eating Beef Chow Fun because it has the perfect mix of chewy rice noodles, tender beef, and that addicting sauce. It's perfect for sharing at the dinner table, but also perfect for eating by yourself straight out the pan!

  • 1 tbsp shaoxing wine

Sauce

Instructions

  • Marinate your thinly sliced beef with shaoxing wine, cornstarch, and salt for 15 minutes.
  • While the beef marinates, finely mince garlic, slice your onions, and cut your scallions into 1-inch pieces, separating the whites and greens. Prepare bean sprouts as well.
  • For the sauce, combine dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and shaoxing wine and mix thoroughly.
  • Lube up your pan and brown your beef for about 3 minutes before removing.
  • In the same pan, add garlic, onions, and scallion whites and cook for about 2 minutes.

  • Add in scallion greens and bean sprouts and toss until the greens are wilted.
  • Serve your chow fun in a bowl or right from the pan.

Notes

(1) I like to use any cut of steak for this dish but prefer to use flank steak. However, I've made this with ribeye and NY strip cuts, and they have turned out amazing!
