If you’ve never cooked with lemongrass before, say hello to this aromatic herb that is perfect for adding a citrusy lift to savory dishes.

Prep

Wash and dry all produce. Bring 2½ cups water and a pinch of salt to a boil in a medium pot. Trim scallions, then thinly slice, keeping greens and whites separate. Trim any stems from green beans, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Core, seed, and remove ribs from bell peppers, then thinly slice. Mince garlic

Once water in pot is boiling, add rice, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and keep covered. Meanwhile, trim bottom inch and papery shoots from lemongrass. Peel off outer layers until you get to tender core. Finely mince core.

Coat and Sear Steak
3

Cut steak against grain into thin strips. Toss in a medium bowl with cornstarch and a large pinch of salt and pepper until coated. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over high heat. Add steak and sear until browned but not entirely cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Remove from pan and set aside
