Ginger-Beef Stir-Fry Recipe Cooks Up Full of Flavor in Just 30 Minutes

When I’m looking for something fast and flavorful to make for dinner on a weeknight, stir-fry is one of the first things that comes to mind. It’s so delicious! I love the medley of flavors, all the fresh veggies sprinkled through it, and the protein that makes the dish so hearty and satisfying. Stir-fry is also easy to make and it’s speedy, too, so it’s the perfect dinner to whip up after work. And all that is what makes this ginger-beef stir-fry recipe so good! It features sirloin steak and potatoes (yes, potatoes!), plus veggies like green beans. We build the flavor of the dish by starting with veggies and potatoes, then add the steak and mix it all with zesty hoisin sauce jazzed up with lime juice and ginger. Yum!

And here’s one of the best parts: The recipe requires just one skillet, and it comes together in just 30 minutes. That means you can cook it quickly and then have the time to sit down and really enjoy it. Watch our video and see how easy this recipe is to make. Then give it a try and let us know what you think.
