Preparation

Whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl or shake them together in a mason jar until combined. Set aside.

Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large sauté pan over high heat.

Add the steak and sauté for about 4 to 5 minutes, tossing occasionally, until cooked through. Transfer the steak to a clean plate and set aside.

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan, along with the onion. Sauté for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the green cabbage, garlic, and carrots, and stir to combine. Continue cooking for about 2 to 4 more minutes, or until the cabbage has wilted to the desired level of crispness.

Add the cooked steak and sauce to the vegetables, and toss to combine for about 30 seconds, or until the sauce thickens up.  Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with desired toppings. Enjoy!
