Ingredients
  

For the Steak

  • ½ pound steak your choice, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce sub soy sauce if you don't have fish sauce

For the Salad

  • ½ cup beef broth
  • 2 scallions thinly sliced
  • ½ cup peanuts chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 cups fresh bean sprouts or one can if you can't find fresh
  • 8 oz rice noodles cooked to package directions
  • 1 lime cut into wedges

For the Drizzle

  • 1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha hot sauce plus more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon sushi vinegar or rice vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Combine the oyster sauce, fish sauce, and hoisin on a plate. Use a fork to mix the ingredients together, then dredge the steak or steaks back and forth to coat on both sides.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil, and cook the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side until medium-rare and browned on the edges. Remove from the heat, and let rest to cool. In the same hot pan, add any leftover steak sauce and the beef stock. Stir to combine and deglaze the pan, then turn off the heat.
  • While the steak is cooking, make the drizzle by combining the chili sauce, hot sauce, and vinegar. Taste, and add more hot sauce if you can take it, or more of the other two ingredients if the sauce is too spicy for you.
  • When the steak has cooled slightly, thinly slice it against the grain.
  • To the pan with the cooled beef sauce, add the noodles, scallions, bean sprouts, and half the peanuts. Toss to combine, and taste - add a bit more beef broth, fish sauce, or hoisin if you'd like.
  • To serve, top the noodles in bowls with some of the steak, extra peanuts, sesame seeds, and lime wedges. Drizzle with hot sauce, and enjoy!

Notes

  • This works served at room temperature or chilled - all components can be made in advance and just assembled before serving if you'd like.
  • Use any steak you like that has a great price on it that day and doesn't need a lot of marinating to be tender, or add some time for marinating before you begin cooking.
