Pro Tip “Mise en Place”
Stir-frying is a fast-paced cooking technique that only takes a few minutes. Mise en place (MEEZ ahn plahs) is a french term for having all your ingredients measured, cut, peeled, sliced, and grated before you start cooking, which is critical when making a stir-fry.
1. Cook Protein
+ Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan/wok over high heat
+ Add steak and cook without moving until slightly browned, about 1 minute. Continue to cook while stirring regularly until cooked through

Note: It is important to cook protein fully through before combining with vegetables and noodles.
