Sesame-Ginger Skirt Steak Stir-Fry

Step 1: In a bowl, combine the sliced skirt steak with 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.

Step 2: Mix well to coat the steak evenly with the marinade.

Step 3: Allow the steak to marinate for about 15-20 minutes at room temperature.

Step 4: While the steak is marinating, heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and add the vegetable oil.

Step 5: Add the sliced sweet onion rounds and a pinch of salt.

Step 6: Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 7: Remove the caramelized onions from the skillet and set them aside.

Step 8: After marinating, heat the same skillet or wok over high heat until it's smoking hot.

Step 9: Add the marinated skirt steak slices in a single layer (you might need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding).

Step 10: Let the steak sear undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until it develops a nice crust.

Step 11: Flip the steak slices and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until they're cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 12: Season the cooked steak with freshly ground black pepper and remove them from the skillet.

Step 13: Return the caramelized onions to the skillet and add the sliced crystallized ginger.

Step 14: Stir-fry the onions and ginger for about 1 minute to combine the flavors.

Step 15: Push the onion-ginger mixture to the side of the skillet and add the unsalted butter to the empty space.

Step 16: Once the butter is melted and foamy, pour in 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. Mix everything together.

Step 17: Add the cooked skirt steak slices back into the skillet with the onion-ginger mixture.

Step 18: Toss everything together in the skillet for another minute to coat the steak with the flavors.

Step 19: Add the sliced green onions and sesame seeds to the skillet and give everything a final toss.

Step 20: Serve the sesame-ginger skirt steak stir-fry over cooked rice.
