Stir-Fried Beef 'n' Beans image

Garlic, ginger and soy sauce lend a robust flavor to this meaty marinated dish. My mother-in-law took cooking lessons while living in Japan and brought back this recipe. It has become a favorite of family and friends...even those who don't usually eat green beans. -Kristine Lowry, Bowling Green, Kentucky
