Ingredients

2 cups jasmine rice and enough water to cook the rice
1 8-10 ounce rib-eye steak
2 tablespoons McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning
1 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoons garlic powder
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 bunch of asparagus cut into 2 inch pieces
2 carrots julienned and cut into 2 inch pieces
3 heads of green onions chopped and separated (white part from green part)
1 tablespoon ginger peeled and chopped
1 orange bell pepper julienned and cut into 2 inch pieces
1 tablespoon brown sugar
4 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Season the Steak

Coat steak with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Then add 1 tablespoon of McCormick's Montreal Steak seasoning to each side and let it marinade for 10 to 15 minutes.

Cook the Rice

In a pot large enough to cook rice, warm 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat. Then add rice, onion powder, garlic powder and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Mix together then add enough water to cook rice. I used 3 cups of water based on the cooking instructions on the package for my rice. Bring the water up to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let steam until rice is fully cooked and all the liquids have cooked off. About 20 minutes.

Cook the Steak

In a large frying pan or cast iron skillet, warm 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat. When oil is hot add steak. Cook on each side for about 4 minutes. Then remove from the heat and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting into 2 inch pieces.

Bringing it together

Return the pan that you cooked the steak in to the heat. Add chopped veggies to the pan with all the pan juices from the steak. Reserve the green stems of the green onions to be added at the end of the dish. Add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to the veggies. Sauté/stir fry the veggies for about 5 minutes then add the steak. Mix steak with veggies and stir fry for about 3 minutes. Then, add the cooked rice and reserved green onions. Toss together and stir-fry for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and serve hot!
