This Sesame-Ginger Beef is simply the best! A big thanks to my friend, Adie, for sharing this recipe with me. I am so glad that I gave it a try because I never would have tasted perfection! Serve this with rice, and you have a meal to remember! Feel free to add more ingredients if you like. I like to add chili sometimes for a spicy version. Try it and thank me later! Have a wonderful day, everyone. Enjoy!

1 teaspoon plus 1 tbsp. canola oil, divided
