Instructions
- 1 Rice // Prepare rice according to package instructions. Cover to keep warm until ready to assemble.
- 2 Ribeye Steak // In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and pepper until sugar is dissolved. Add steak strips and gently toss to coat evenly with marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes. Just prior to serving, preheat a large skillet to medium high heat. Add ½ tbsp of vegetable oil and sear off half the steak until browned and slightly caramelized, but still tender about 30 seconds per side. Repeat with the remaining oil and steak strips. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
- 3 Carrots // In a non-stick skillet over medium high heat, add vegetable oil and quickly sauté grated carrot until slightly tender, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and toss with soy sauce and sesame oil. Set aside. Reserve the skillet to use in the next steps.
- 4 Mushrooms // Using the same non-stick skillet over high heat, add vegetable oil and quickly sauté sliced mushrooms until slightly tender, about 1 minute. Transfer to bowl and toss with soy sauce and sesame oil. Set aside.
- 5 Spinach // Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add baby spinach to the boiling water and stir until slightly wilted, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse spinach well under cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out excess water, then dress with soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds. Mix well and set aside.
- 6 Pickled Aloha™ Peppers // In a stainless steel or heat proof glass bowl, add salt and sugar and pour in boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Add vinegar and Aloha™ pepper strips. Let stand uncovered for at least 20 minutes to make a quick pickle; the liquid should return to room temperature in that time.
