One of hubby and I’s favorite late night snack. Inspired by 2 dishes we loved from restaurants. The Steak bites served with sesame sauce at Canadian Brewhouse in Canada are awesome, one of their best sellers!
These Szchewan Beans we used to eat at Milestones in Alberta. We just loved them. Although they are not on the menu anymore. Costco Canada now actually sells a szchewan green bean kit to make these, they aren’t bad!
Steak bites. Marinated in soya sauce for a couple hours. Then put your favorite steak spice on them. Pan fry high heat to get that color and flavour. Serve with toothpick and sesame sauce to dip. I do prefer a homemade sauce but it isn’t a sauce that lasts long so yeah, I normally buy it.
These beans, I could eat this whole pan lol!
The green beans I put them in that pan just covered with water and boil til almost cooked. I drain water. And add about 2TBSP of this sauce. Mix, heat, and top with some sesame seeds. I make this sauce ahead, this stores in my fridge til needed.
