Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 lb steak - cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup cooked corn - use freshly grilled for best taste, canned works too!
- 1 small red onion - diced
- 1 bell pepper - diced
- 1 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2.5-3 cups cooked rice - day old rice preferred
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Chopped green onions or chopped parsley - for garnish
Sauce Ingredients:
- 1.5 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Season the steak:
- In a bowl, toss the steak pieces with 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp black pepper. Set aside.
Sauté the vegetables:
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add diced red onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Add bell pepper and mushrooms, and sauté for another 2 minutes. Remove the veggies from the pan and set aside.
Cook the steak:
- In the same pan, heat 2 tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak in a single layer. Let it sear for about 2 minutes without moving it, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes, flipping occasionally until browned.
Add the rice:
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the rice and stir to break up any clumps.
Bring it all together:
- Return the cooked veggies to the pan. Pour in the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic salt, and pepper) and stir everything together until well combined and heated through.
Add the corn:
- Flatten the rice slightly in the pan, then sprinkle the corn evenly over the top.
Add the cheese:
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the top. Cover with a lid and let it cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and gooey.
Garnish and serve:
- Top with chopped green onions or parsley, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
