Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds flank steak cut into 1/4 inch strips
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper for seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons cold water
  • 3 scallions white and green parts, sliced into 1 inch pieces
  • cooked rice for serving

Instructions
 

  • Season the steak with salt and pepper. Select browning/saute to preheat the pressure cooking pot. When hot add the vegetable oil. In batches quickly brown one side of the steak strips. Transfer the browned meat to a plate.
  • Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Stir in the soy sauce, water, brown sugar and ginger, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the browned beef and any accumulated juices. Lock the lid in place. Select high pressure and 12 minutes cook time.
  • When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker. Use a quick pressure release. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Add the slurry to the pot. Select simmer/saute and bring the liquid to a boil, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Stir in the scallions. Serve over cooked rice.
