Marinated Beef Stir-Fry

"I love this quick-and-easy stir-fry because everything but the cooking can be done in advance," writes Marian Johnson of Brawley, California. "It's great with sourdough bread and a fresh tomato and cucumber salad. Or, serve it with warm tortillas and hot sauce. The meat is easier to slice into nice even strips if it's partially frozen."

    I thought this was just okay. I let the meat marinate for at least 24 hours for more flavor; it just seemed like it was lacking something (probably needed a good sauce).
