Even better, this dish is just as good as—or even better than—anything you'll find in a to-go carton. If you don't have a stir-fry pan, use a heavy skillet with a large surface area for the ingredients sear properly. {(rater>id=100|name=Spicy Beef With Peanuts And Chiles|type=rate|headline=off)} |**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 4 servings|| |**Prep:** 0:00|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:00| ====== Ingredients ====== * 1 lb. flank steak, thinly sliced on the diagonal against the grain * 2 Tbs. soy sauce * 2 tsp. fish sauce * 1/4 tsp. kosher salt; more to taste * 2 Tbs. fresh lime juice * 1 Tbs. light brown sugar * 1/4 cup salted peanuts * 2 large shallots, coarsely chopped * 2 Thai or serrano chiles, stemmed and coarsely chopped (don’t seed) * 3 Tbs. canola or peanut oil * 1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro * 3 Tbs. chopped fresh basil ====== Directions ====== - Toss the steak with 1 Tbs. of the soy sauce, 1 tsp. of the fish sauce, and the salt.
