  4. Brush a cast iron skillet with a little vegetable oil and place over high heat. When the skillet is very hot, add beef in a single layer and cook until meat begins to caramelize around the edges and moisture begins to evaporate, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve over hot rice and top with green onion slices.

Chef’s Note:

You can marinate the beef for up to 12 hours, but I have good results with a 1- to 2-hour marination time.
