Great recipe. Two changes that I made was olive oil instead of the sesame oil and for the meat I used a Filet. I could have used a little more meat but otherwise this was very good and can't wait to make it again.

Great Recipe, but no leftovers :o) I did change it up just a little. I added 2T of hoisin sauce, 1/8t of onion powder, 1T brown sugar and one small clove of garlic. SO GOOD, next time I will double my recipe. The kids even loved it! 10 stars!!! THANK YOU!

I followed the recipe exactly. The meat was tender and my family loved it. Might not be exactly like the restaurant version but still very good. Next time I might try some of the suggestions of other people reviewing the recipe.

Maybe I bought the wrong cut of meat but my meat was very tough. The sauce was okay, but it wasn't anything special. I'm surprised this got such good reviews.

This was a wonderful, easy recipe enjoyed by the whole family. I love how healthy it is compared to the traditional Mongolian Beef fried in oil. I added a full cup of chicken broth and a bit more hoisin sauce-(I love hoisin)! I think adding fresh ginger and garlic to this recipe is a must! Thanks!

We really like this recipe. Quick, tasty, and the family did not leave any leftovers. However, it was not like the Mongolian beef we often order from our local Chinese restaurant.
