How to be creative
  • Add some red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Try using different vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped fresh herbs before serving.
Important Tips
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the skillet, as this will steam the beef and Brussels sprouts rather than sear them.
  • Adjust the soy sauce based on your taste preference, especially if you want a stronger umami flavor.
  • Feel free to substitute the beef with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
