Is there a difference in the “chili” seasoning listed in ingredients via the “chile” seasoning listed in instructions? And, “garlic” in the ingredients vs “Asian garlic” in instructions? I’m unfamiliar cooking this type of cuisine. Thanks
Flavors weren’t there. The beef had a weird texture too.
Hi there! So sorry you didn’t enjoy this recipe! Anything I can do to help? xT
I made this last night and while it was a very simple, clean dish, I feel like it was missing some kind of flavor in the beef. It was probably my own doing though because I didn’t salt the meat beforehand! It just didn’t have a kick or bite or that something I was looking for.
I would make this again as an easy weeknight recipe but salt the flank steak real good.
Thanks for the feedback Stephanie! xT
